Different Kinds of Safety Equipment

What are safety equipment? Why are they important? These are equipment meant to support workers who need to work from heights for construction or moving heavy loads. They are important because if the workers are not safely harnessed, they can fall. This can cause harm to people and property, sometimes even proving to be fatal.
