Safety nets are used on construction sites and similar works mainly to arrest a person?s fall, although
they can also be used to catch or contain debris. Safety nets reduce injury because they absorb a large
proportion of the energy from a falling body through suffering plastic deformation when impacted,
dissipating this energy with minimum rebound.
Safety nets provide a collective protection system that is constantly available for those persons
working above it, i.e. one which requires no input from the workers it is being used to protect.
Safety nets are manufactured from synthetic materials. While they are lightweight and rot-resistant,
they can be easily damaged by improper use, wear and tear, heat or flame, and handling and storage.
They can also be adversely affected by ultraviolet (UV) degradation and environmental factors,
resulting in some strength loss. Safety nets are subject to regular examinations by competent persons
including periodic testing in accordance with the manufacturer?s instructions.
