Like all fall arrest lanyards, shock absorbing lanyards suspend the fall of a user who has fallen when working from height. The lanyard, in conjunction with the other elements of the fall arrest system, suspend the user before they fall to the level below. The shock absorption element is an added section made from webbing that gradually tears when the force of a fall is applied. This slow tear reduces the momentum of the fall, reducing risk of injury that may be caused by the sudden jerk of an arrested fall.
Technically yes, a shock absorber lanyard can be used in both fall arrest and fall restraint systems when working at height. This is because it is not possible for a user to manually generate enough force to activate the shock absorber element of the safety lanyard. However, we’d generally advise against using any product for anything other than its intended purpose.
