High altitude anti fall devices should also be worn at a working height of 3 meters

In China, industries such as construction, decoration, and cleaning require the deployment of high-altitude workers to complete tasks ranging from tens to hundreds of meters. While earning high wages, these workers also bear significant safety risks, as they can easily fall from the sky and cause personal injury if not careful. A few days ago, a high-altitude construction worker fell onto steel bars on the ground and was pierced by them due to not wearing safety protection devices such as high-altitude fall arresters.

The story goes like this: On March 10th, workers at a construction site in Zunyi were working on equipment about 3 meters high from the ground. Due to sudden shaking of the equipment, the workers were unable to stand steadily and fell from the air, being pierced by steel bars on the ground. After the firefighters tried their best to rescue them, the steel bars in their abdomen were cut out and they were quickly sent to the hospital for treatment.

After investigation, it was found that the construction worker lacked safety awareness and believed that there was no need to wear safety protection devices at a working height of 3 meters. He did not wear any protective measures such as safety ropes, safety belts, or high-altitude fall arresters. When a dangerous situation occurred, his body had no support, which led to the danger. It can be seen that although safety measures are only protective devices and may seem optional during normal operations, they can save lives in critical moments.
