MSA Trauma Straps

The Suspension Trauma Safety Step is designed to help workers in a post-fall suspension position avoid the effects of suspension trauma. The Safety Step allows workers to relieve pressure by inserting a foot into one of the step loops and then standing up in the harness. The flexing of leg muscles and release of harness leg strap pressure stimulates blood flow, helping to prevent the onset of suspension trauma. Workers can use a single Safety Step or two Safety Steps (one for each leg) to provide additional support, balance, and comfort.
