Inspection Details

Select whether this is a pre-use inspection or an annual competent-person inspection.
Name of the person completing the inspection.
Date and time the inspection was completed.
Record the equipment ID, asset tag, or serial number for the PFAS set being inspected.
Required for annual inspections completed by a competent person.

Harness

Inspect all load-bearing webbing for visible damage, discoloration, hardening, melting, or contamination.
Check all stitching, especially at load-bearing attachment points and adjuster locations.
Verify hardware is not bent, cracked, corroded, deformed, or seized and that buckles and adjusters operate smoothly.
Manufacturer labels, capacity markings, and inspection tags must be present and readable.
Remove from service if the harness has arrested a fall or shows signs of shock loading.

Lanyard / SRL

Inspect the full length of the lanyard or lifeline for wear, damage, contamination, or deformation.
Check that the shock absorber has not been deployed and shows no signs of elongation, tearing, or activation.
For self-retracting lifelines, verify the housing is intact, the line retracts smoothly, and the locking mechanism engages properly.
Check hooks, carabiners, and snap hooks for deformation, cracks, corrosion, gate damage, and proper self-closing action.
Verify the equipment identification, manufacturer markings, and inspection status are readable.

Anchor & Connectors

Confirm the anchor is intended for personal fall arrest use and is installed per manufacturer instructions and site procedure.
Inspect the anchor structure, fasteners, and attachment point for wear, cracks, rust, movement, or other deficiencies.
Verify connectors are compatible with the anchor and other PFAS components and are fully closed and locked.
Check for improper loading conditions, cross-loading, or attachment methods that could compromise connector performance.
For annual inspections, verify the inspection record is current and traceable to the equipment ID.

Documentation & Removal from Service

Any damaged, missing, or non-compliant PFAS component must be removed from service immediately.
Describe the deficiency, action taken, and disposition of the equipment.
Signature confirming the inspection was completed and findings are accurate.
