You'll also gain expert tips from the safety professionals at Schake (Thailand) Co., Ltd. to ensure you stay safe while working at heights.

Types of Safety Belts
    Safety belts come in various types, designed to cater to different work requirements. Choosing the right one for the specific nature of the job is crucial, such as:
1.Full Body Harness
    A full body harness covers the shoulders, torso, waist, and legs, providing comprehensive protection for the wearer. It is ideal for high-risk jobs that require maximum safety, such as construction and high-rise building maintenance. This type of safety belt effectively absorbs the impact of a fall from a height, ensuring high fall arrest protection and reducing the risk of injury. It is essential for tasks that involve working at heights, offering enhanced security and stability for the user.

2.Work Positioning Harness
    This type of safety belt allows the worker to position themselves securely while working at heights, providing stability and comfort during tasks such as maintenance or inspections. However, it is not designed to withstand direct impact from a fall (Not for Fall Arrest). Unlike full-body harnesses designed for fall protection, a positioning harness is used primarily for keeping the worker in place and preventing unintentional movement, but it does not offer protection in the event of a fall. Therefore, it should always be used in combination with other fall protection systems when working at heights.


3. Rescue and Evacuation Harness

    ออกแบบมาเพื่อใช้ในสถานการณ์ฉุกเฉิน เช่น การช่วยเหลือผู้ประสบภัยจากที่สูง หรือการอพยพหนีภัย  มีจุดยึดที่แข็งแรงและออกแบบมาให้สวมใส่ได้ง่ายและรวดเร็ว

The selection of the appropriate seatbelt
To ensure the seatbelt has a long lifespan and maintains its effectiveness in protection, the following practices should be followed:

• Check the condition of the seatbelt before each use. Look for signs of wear and tear, such as tears, frayed straps, or damaged buckles.
• Clean the seatbelt regularly, avoiding the use of harsh chemicals.
• Store the seatbelt in a dry, cool place, away from sunlight and heat.
