 Helmets
Helmets used for work at height should have strong chin straps with a Y cradle to prevent removal in the event of a fall, and should offer increased resistance to side impact.

Head protection for situations where a fall could occur.
Extol Helmet for work at height (MH06)
Helmet for tower rigging, rope access, climbing and rescue
 Helmets
Mountaineering (EN 12492) style helmets are usually chosen for any situation where a considerable fall might occur - in tower climbing, for example.

In other siutations it might be desirable to be able to affix complementary PPE such as visors or eye protection, in which case industrial (EN 397) helmets might be appropriate.

Whatever the situation, helmets used for work at height must have additional side impact protection, according to either industrial or mountaineering standards.
