FALL PROTECTION:
Fall Protection is a general term that covers all methods of protecting workers in the event of a fall from height.
FALL ARREST:
A fall arrest system is designed to protect a person during/after a fall, restricting the possibilities of hitting the ground.
Fall arrest systems provide maximum freedom of movement for workers to conduct their work, and allows the person to either effect a self-rescue or be rescued in the event of a fall.
FALL RESTRAINT:
A fall restraint system uses a body holding device connected to a reliable anchor, allowing a person access to conduct their duties but prevents the worker from reaching a point where a fall could occur, fall restraint systems can also be referred to as ?Work Restraint?.
Fall restraint systems are generally suitable if the person needs to work at the edge of a hazard, e.g. where there is a need for maintenance along the edge of a roof, or if there are other potential fall hazards such as a fragile roof, roof lights or air vents.
