    MEETING GUIDE

    Using the right lanyard


    A lanyard is a flexible line of webbing, or a synthetic or wire rope, used to secure a safety belt or full body
    harness to a lifeline or anchor.
    A lanyard that meets the requirements of CSA Standard Z259.1 is acceptable to WorkSafeBC.

    Keep lanyards as short as possible to reduce the distance you could fall. Try to arrange the lanyard to limit a
    free fall to no more than 1.2 m (4 ft.) in a fall arrest situation.
    When using a wire rope lanyard for fall arrest, a personal shock absorber must be included in your personal
    fall protection system in order to keep the arrest force at a safe level.
