At what height do scaffolders have to attach their safety harness?
In accordance with NASC Guidance Note SG4:05, scaffolders using conventional fall arrest equipment are required to attach the safety harness and lanyard at a height of 4m or more to the attachment point. The attachment will not be necessary when the scaffolders are working within the protection of at least a single guardrail and standing on a platform with no more than a one board gap (in total) that they could fall into.
