full body harness
Fall arrest gear
A full body harness is safety equipment worn to protect against falls, consisting of straps that wrap around the shoulders, chest, and legs to distribute the force of a fall across the body.
Standard equipment for construction workers, window washers, and rock climbers: Make sure your full body harness is properly adjusted before ascending.
Distinguished from simpler belt-style harnesses by providing more secure attachment points and reducing injury risk during a fall.
