Abstract
This article considers static ropes - one of the components of a personal fall protection system when working at heights. The issue of accidents when working at heights in Russia and abroad is raised. The inspection of the ropes is considered as one of the local mechanisms to reduce injuries when performing work at heights, as well as the advanced training of specialists responsible for the inspection of personal protective equipment against falling from a height. The effect of acid solutions most commonly encountered in industrial activities with short-term contact and with prolonged contact on polyamide ropes is investigated. Recommendations are given for a more competent use of these products in various situations without compromising safety. The questions of solving the problem of the hidden effect of acids on static ropes with a polyester sheath are raised.
