Standards and Planning Notes
For Malaysia and Singapore projects, fall protection equipment should be selected through a work-at-height risk assessment, checked against relevant EN/ANSI/Singapore Standard references where applicable, and supported by inspection records. Malaysia buyers should also confirm DOSH/SIRIM KPD documentation for safety harnesses, lifelines and related components where required.
Common Questions
Can this be used alone?
