It has been brought to our attention what we would call an unsafe practice of attaching certification tags to harness dorsals using a wire lanyard.

A serious incident causing death occurred in a mine in Australia where a restraint had been inadvertently attached to a wire lanyard on a safety harness.

DREAMWORLD has been issued three prohibition notices by Workplace Health and Safety QLD (WHSQ) inspectors over its Buzzsaw ride, relating to safety harnesses and staff access.

WHSQ issued the notices relating to “maintenance safety harness anchor points” on the BuzzSaw, ordering the company to undertake additional certification.
