• If an operative is fully reliant upon a work   positioning system then a secondary system is   generally required as a backup in case of failure.

• The secondary system may be a work positioning   system or, as in most cases, a fall arrest system.

• One of the main advantages of work positioning
  is having  your hands free to work.

• If workers are able to see the benefits then they are   more likely to use a system.

• Equipment for work positioning is designed to   cope with static loads on a regular basis, not for   dynamic loads such as those imposed by a fall.

• The care, use and maintenance of work positioning   equipment is covered by LOLER (Lifting   Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations).

• Workers will generally require training to help with   the correct usage and ensure that they comply with   the demands of LOLER
