ASSP Z359.3 – Safety Requirements for Lanyards and Positioning Lanyards – Part of the Fall Protection Code
1.1 Scope
This standard establishes requirements for the design, performance, qualification testing, test methods, marking, instruction, training, maintenance and removal from service of lanyards and positioning lanyards for users within the capacity range of 130 to 310 pounds (59 to 140 kg).

Positioning lanyards serve a support function, usually connecting hip to hip and holding a user in a working position, always under load when used. Lanyards serve a tethering function and are not routinely under load.
1.2 Purpose and Application
The purpose of this standard is to establish minimum requirements for the design, testing and marking of lanyards and positioning lanyards, and is intended for use by manufacturers, distributors, purchasers, regulators, users and certifying bodies of lanyards and positioning lanyards.
