An approved safety harness with maximum 6 ft. lanyard attached to a structure able to hold 5,400 lbs. shall be worn by any employee working in an area in which a fall of 6 ft. or more is possible, or in which a fall into a hazardous area is possible (such as into a tank or vat of chemical, into a working part of a machine, and into the path of moving vehicles).
A lifeline able to hold 5,400 lbs. attached to a structure of comparable strength must be used to support a safety belt, where required.
