Where work positioning lanyards could be vulnerable to wear, e.g. where they are often E.3.5 in contact with the structure while under load, or damage, e.g. by powered tools, they should be of a heavier duty than normal lanyards and/or be protected from wear or damage, e.g. by a protective sleeve or by the use of lanyards made from steel wire.To allow for foreseeable misuse, it is recommended that work positioning lanyards haveE.3.6 at least the same static strength as lanyards used for fall arrest.Work positioning lanyards should not be difficult to adjust and ideally this should beE.3.7 possible with one hand.E.4Restraint lanyardsE.4.1 Restraint lanyards are used to restrict a user’s broadly horizontal travel so that he/she is physically prevented from reaching zones where there is a risk of a fall from a height, e.g. a fall over an edge (see Part 1, 1.3 for the definition of work restraint). For information on restraint systems, see Part 2, 2.7.1.5 and Annex L, L.2.
