Personal Fall Arrest Systems (PFAS)

A Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS) is safety equipment designed to protect workers from falling when working at heights. It typically includes a harness worn around the body, a lanyard or lifeline, and an anchorage point secured to a stable structure. If a worker slips or loses balance, the PFAS quickly halts the fall, preventing serious injury. Proper use and regular inspection are essential for effectiveness, making PFAS a critical component of workplace safety in construction, maintenance, and other high-elevation jobs.
