3.2 Proper Harness Fit
It is extremely important that your harness fits and is properly adjusted. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death, and proper connection of both types of straps is essential to fall safety. After
donning a harness, make sure to check:

CHEST STRAP:

trachea but not below the sternum]. If the chest strap is positioned too high, the strap may move upwards
during a fall arrest causing you to run the risk of strangulation. If the chest strap is too low or not connected
at all, you could fall out of your harness during a fall.

LEG STRAPS:

Proper adjustment of the leg straps is critical for safety.
Leg straps should be snug, but not snug to the point that they obstruct
normal blood circulation in the legs. Failure to wear leg straps will not
secure your body within the harness during a fall and could lead to seri-
ous injury or death.
SUB-PELVIC STRAP:
provides support when used for positioning. In a seated position, the sub-
pelvic strap should comfortably provide a "seat" for the buttocks. In the
event of a fall, simply lift up your legs to transfer weight to the sub-pelvic strap.
