The purpose of a work positioning lanyard is to provide a means of support and stability while the worker is performing tasks that require them to be in a specific position for an extended period. This type of lanyard is commonly used by workers in the telecommunications, construction, and industrial maintenance industries. When using a work positioning lanyard, it is important to ensure that the lanyard is properly attached to the worker's harness and that the anchor point is secure and strong enough to support the weight of the worker.
