All equipment or systems must be inspected before each use. If any issues are noted, a competent person should determine if it should be used, repaired, or removed from service. [2]
Permanent anchors should be inspected by a competent person at least once a year or according to the manufacturer's instructions. Keep records of the inspections, including the date of inspection, name, and signature of the person who did the inspection and any modifications or repairs made to the anchor point. [1]
Also, inspect your personal fall protection system before each use. [3]
