Work Positioning Lanyard with Shortener | 2m or 4m Length | Adjustable Working Length | EN 358 Compliant
The Yale Work Positioning Device is an adjustable work positioning lanyard with an integral shortener mechanism. The device connects between the two side D-rings on a work positioning harness and around a structure (such as a pole, tube, or column), allowing the user to lean back against the lanyard and work hands-free at height. The shortener allows the user to adjust the working length on the lanyard precisely to suit the working position. Available in 2 m and 4 m maximum lengths. Manufactured by Columbus McKinnon under the Yale lifting brand, supplied with a manufacturer's test certificate and operating manual.

Supplied with a manufacturer's test certificate and CE Declaration of Conformity. PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425 Category III. Work at Height Regulations 2005 require thorough examinations every 6 months by a competent person.

Work positioning lanyard with shortener for hands-free working at height. Always use in conjunction with a separate fall arrest system as backup.
Essential for scaffold erection, telecoms tower work, electricity pylon work, structural steel work, and any task requiring the user to work hands-free in a leaning position at height. The 2 m variant suits closer-quarter work positioning around scaffold tubes and smaller structures; the 4 m variant suits larger structures such as telecoms towers and pylons. A work positioning lanyard must always be backed up with a separate fall arrest system where a fall risk exists.
Warning: A work positioning lanyard does not provide fall arrest โ a separate fall arrest system must always be in place where a fall risk exists. Side D-rings are for work positioning only โ never use as fall arrest attachment points. The shortener must be locked at the chosen working length before applying full load โ never adjust under load.
Inspect the webbing, shortener mechanism, and both end-connectors before each use, paying attention to webbing for cuts or fraying, shortener for free operation and locking function, and connectors for distortion or gate damage. Clean using warm water and mild detergent only. Air-dry. Store in a clean, dry place away from sunlight and chemicals. Thorough examination by a competent person every 6 months. Maximum service life typically 10 years from date of first use, subject to inspection.
The 2 m variant suits closer-quarter work positioning around scaffold tubes, columns, and smaller structures. The 4 m variant suits larger structures such as telecoms towers, pylons, and wind turbine sections.
No. Work positioning supports the user in a leaning position โ it does not arrest a fall. A separate fall arrest system must always be in place where a fall risk exists.
Any Yale multi-point harness with two work positioning side D-rings โ the Three Point CMHYP20, Four Point CMHYP56A, Two Point CMHYP35 (if work positioning belt is fitted), and Riggers CMHYP70.
No. Lock the shortener at the chosen working length before applying full load. Never adjust under load.
Work positioning loads the user evenly across the waist via the two side D-rings. Connecting only one end produces an uneven load and is not safe.
Yale work positioning devices are designed for industrial work positioning. Specialist arboriculture work positioning systems with different specifications are typically used for tree surgery.
Pre-use inspection before every use, thorough examination by a competent person every 6 months.
