Pick the right harness to ensure silo safety
In the UK, a father has just been fined £50,000 following the death of his son in a grain silo accident in 2014. The 21-year-old boy sank under tonnes of wheat after he had been instructed to climb into and clean a silo on the family farm.
Tragically, the harness the boy was wearing was designed to prevent injury in a fall from height and had a shock absorber in its lanyard. This was the wrong type of harness for the job as, rather than being as short as possible, it extended from 2 to nearer 3 m and did not prevent the young man from being submerged in the grain.
