Fall Protection Harness and Extender Inspection
by Jason Johnson, from the Community
Use this checklist to inspect personal fall protection equipment before use. Verify full body harness hardware including buckles, adjusters and D-rings; assess webbing and stitching for cuts, abrasions, mold, discoloration, or signs of heat, chemical or UV damage. Check stitched impact indicators and remove any impacted harness from service. Confirm all labels are present and legible. For D-ring extenders and connectors, ensure snap hooks and carabiners gate and lock properly, adjusters function smoothly, and record model, serial and length details. If applicable, inspect synthetic rope for wear, tight splices and contamination. Capture site, inspector and equipment owner details, then sign and date completion to document compliance and keep workers safe at height.
