This webinar is a general discussion on the update to ASNZS1891.4:2025, focusing the requirement for additional control measures (fall protection system) to be implemented when a work positioning system is used, while working at height.

We encourage active participation in this webinar, to share ideas around how companies are implementing solutions to this requirement, what their rollout strategies are, how they’re engaging with their staff, and managing compliance, photos would be great as well.

The updated Standard is now available on the Standards NZ website – Standards New Zealand

  Thanks
  
  Stephen.

This was the 3M harness Graeme was talking about that Omexon is using. The harness on the dummy doesn’t fairly represent how the harness will sit on a person (lower D’s)
