What is a Safety Harness?

A safety harness is a system of restraints that prevent the wearer from falling from a height. By wearing the belt or harness the risk of injury from a fall is greatly reduced.
The harness allows the user to attach themselves to a stationary object, therefore ensuring they will not hit the ground in the event of a fall. Falling from a height is one of the most common causes of personal injury in the workplace, so it is very important to make sure you are properly equipped when working up high.

Winter PPE: The Jacket Safety Harness

Admin products

As any outdoor worker will know, the winter elements bring a whole new set of health and safety challenges to the work site. Wind, rain and frosty spells combine to make the task of maintaining safe conditions even more challenging, which means that additional measures must be taken in order to keep employees safe and well.

One of the most vulnerable and exposed groups during this time, are those who work at height, who have to manage the existing risks and challenges of their operations, with additional inconveniences from the poor conditions. For this reason, we stock specialised jacket safety harnesses with this exact problem in mind, providing workers with the same level of reliable fall protection, while also keeping them warm and dry.

#BLOODHOUNDisGo: SafetyLiftinGear Beam Used to Lift Supersonic Car

Admin general news

As an official partner of The BLOODHOUND Project, we at SafetyLiftinGear have been watching the progress of this undertaking with feverish enthusiasm since day one. It's been amazing to see the BLOODHOUND car - a record-breaker in the making - gradually coming together, and we were very excited to learn that the team had finally set a date for their creation's record attempt. We will hopefully see BLOODHOUND break the world land speed record (which currently stands at just over 763mph) in October 2017 - that's just over a year from now!

There was even more excitement to be had here in the SLG office when photos emerged (on @BLOODHOUND_SSC's official Twitter page) of a SafetyLiftinGear beam being use to lift the monstrous supercar from its hubs.

It's great to see our products forming part of such an amazing project, and we can't wait for the record attempt in October '17 - we wish the BLOODHOUND team every success!
