CAI Safety Systems Inc. offers fall protection systems, training, services, and equipment designed to support compliance with applicable ANSI and OSHA fall protection requirements.

ANSI standards are periodically reviewed and revised to address new technologies, industry practices, and evolving workplace safety requirements.

ANSI standards help establish consistent requirements for fall protection equipment, system design, training, inspection, and safe work practices, contributing to safer workplaces.

ANSI standards emphasize proper training, and OSHA requires workers exposed to fall hazards to be trained by a competent person to recognize hazards and use fall protection equipment correctly.

Yes. ANSI requires markings and labels on fall protection equipment to remain legible and securely attached throughout the service life of the equipment.

ANSI standards require energy absorbers to limit maximum arrest force to specified levels during dynamic testing to help reduce impact forces on workers.

Yes. ANSI requires snap hooks and carabiners used in fall protection systems to be self-closing and self-locking, requiring at least two deliberate actions to open.

NSI standards specify that a personal fall arrest system should limit the maximum arrest force to 1,800 pounds (8.0 kN) when tested according to the applicable requirements.

Yes. ANSI standards for personal fall arrest systems are based on the use of full-body harnesses rather than body belts for fall arrest applications.

A personal fall arrest system is a combination of equipment including a full-body harness, connecting device, and anchorage designed to safely stop a worker during a fall.

ANSI Z359 is a fall protection code that establishes requirements for personal fall arrest systems, subsystems, components, training, rescue planning, and equipment performance.

ANSI standards are voluntary guidelines; however, many ANSI requirements are adopted by OSHA and may become enforceable through OSHA regulations.

ANSI (American National Standards Institute) is an organization that develops voluntary consensus standards for workplace safety, including fall protection systems, equipment, training, and safety procedures.
