Harnesses come in a variety of types: Work Positioning Harnesses (for use by an industrial abseiler who is getting to a place of work by abseiling / ascending or descending a rope / aiding) - Split into Full Body Harnesses, Chest Harnesses and Sit Harnesses, Fall Arrest Harnesses (for use when there is a possibility that the user may take a fall and this fall needs to be stopped in a controlled manner - usually by a shock absorbing lanyard) or Work Restraint Harnesses (designed to stop a user getting to a place where a fall may occur - usually by using a lanyard which limits the distance a person can move - common locations for use are in cherry pickers / scissor lifts).
