Demonstrate the proper inspection, donning and use of a full body harness, as well as associated equipment (i.e. fixed lanyards, self-retracting lanyards, cross-arm straps, etc.). Explain the proper and safe use of portable ladders and PFPS used in mobile elevated work platforms. Understand the effects of fall forces when applied to the body, as well as outline rescue options and requirements.
