In reference to standard EN ISO 20344, this European standard defines the basic and the additional
(optional) requirements for safety footwear for the workplace, marked «S». The safety shoe is
equipped with safety toe caps designed to withstand a maximum impact of 200 joules and crushing
up to 15 kN.

This standard defines the test methods for safety footwear, protective footwear, and occupational
shoes. It may be used only in conjunction with standards EN ISO 20345 and EN ISO 20347, which
specify the requirements for the shoes as a function of specific levels of risk involved.

Equipment consisting of a mobile fall arrester with self-locking, integral with its flexible anchorage line (rope, cable…). An energy reducer (absorber) can be built-in in the equipment.

Equipment consisting of a mobile fall arrester with self-locking, integral with its rigid anchorage line (rail, cable…). An energy reducer can be built-in on the equipment.

Body securing device intended to stop falls. The full body harness can be made of straps, buckles and other elements; set and adjusted in a right way on the body of an individual to secure him during a fall and afterwards.

Component of a fall arrest equipment, which guarantees the stop of a fall from a height in safety by reducing the impact of the shock.

WARNING: If we associate a lanyard energy absorber, the total length of the entire device must not exceed 2 m.

Fall arrester with self-locking device and a self-retractable system for the lanyard. An energy reducer (absorber) can be built-in in the equipment.

SCIP information

Connection element or equipment component. A connector can be karabiner or a snap hook.
Class A: Anchorage connector, automatic lock used as the component and designed to be connected directly to a specific type of anchorage.
Class B: Primary connector with automatic lock used as the component.
Class M: Multi-purpose connector, primary or quick opening, used as a component, which can be loaded along its major axis or minor axis.
Class Q: Quick opening connector used in long-term or permanent applications, screw lock. When completely screwed this part is a supporting part of the
connector.
Class T: Manufactured end connector, automatic lock, designed as part of a subsystem for attachment so that the load is carried in a predetermined direction.

Taking into account the level of risk covered, the Regulation defines the PPE categories and determines the various manufacturer’s obligations:
• PPE category 1: Protection against minor risks.
• PPE category 2: All PPE that are not category 1 or 3.
• PPE category 3: Protection against disability or fatality

It contains laboratory tests to check the conformity with resistance to impacts, to temperature, to humidity and corrosive atmospheres, and with mechanical and respiratory resistance.

It contains laboratory tests and practical performance tests to check the conformity with resistance to temperature, to impacts, to flame, to thermal radiation, to traction,
resistance to cleansers and disinfectants. Furthermore, the visual inspection must concern the marking and the manufacturers’ information guide.
