An energy absorbing lanyard is a device used in fall protection systems to reduce the impact of a fall on a worker. When a worker falls, the energy absorbing lanyard expands, dissipating the energy of the fall and reducing the force on the worker’s body. This can prevent serious injuries such as broken bones or spinal injuries, and is a crucial safety measure in industries where workers are at risk of falls, such as construction or utility work.

Energy absorbing lanyards are designed to meet strict safety standards and regulations to ensure their effectiveness in protecting workers. They are typically made of durable materials such as nylon or polyester rope, with a built-in shock absorber that activates during a fall. These lanyards can be attached to a secure anchor point on a harness worn by the worker, allowing for freedom of movement while providing vital protection in case of a fall. Employers are responsible for providing and maintaining proper fall protection equipment, including energy absorbing lanyards, to protect their workers and ensure a safe work environment.
