Use this safety harness inspection template to ensure fall protection equipment is safe to use before any work at height. Capture a description of the task and a photo of the harness, then inspect full body harness components including webbing, stitching, D rings, buckles, grommets, and labels. Verify snaphooks, lanyards shock absorbing, self retracting, and positioning types, and tie off adaptors or anchorages for damage or malfunction. Check horizontal lifelines and ensure labels are legible. Test locking mechanisms, confirm retractors operate correctly, and review energy absorbing components. Record defects, add photos, note recommendations, and rate overall condition to keep workers compliant and reduce the risk of falls.
