Inspection of Life Ropes and Load Test

These are the tools that are produced in accordance with the requirements of the work and allow the work to be carried out safely. In the workplaces, it is necessary to establish the most suitable platform that will provide safe working conditions in accordance with the characteristics of the work performed. The dimensions of the platform and the weight of the load that it can carry should be chosen correctly depending on the purpose for which it will be used. Most importantly, it provides employees with ease of use that will not create any danger.

Employees must wear helmets, goggles, safety belts, gloves and similar personal protective materials during the installation and dismantling of the platforms and during the works after the installation. One of these safety equipment is life ropes. When working on the platform above the ground, the safety belts of the employees must be attached to the life ropes. The ropes must be securely fastened to a platform-independent location.

In practice, all kinds of suspended scaffolding and platforms in the work, for each of the employees, separate life rope, hanging down to a stable place is attached. Workers attach the hooks of the seat belts on their waist to the safety lock, rope grip or rope eyes on this lifeline.

If, according to the Regulation on Health and Safety Conditions in the Use of Work Equipment issued by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, the platforms must be inspected and inspected at least once a year between all lifting and transmission vehicles; It should be examined at least once every year and load tests should be done.
