Fall inside reactor

After helping to dismantle a metal scaffold inside a reactor, a worker was at the base of the reactor getting ready to exit through the overhead reactor manhole. While the worker was climbing up 14 meters up the vertical rope ladder, he fell and landed at the base of the reactor. He had not anchored his safety harness though he was wearing one. The worker was immediately rescued but he died on the way to the hospital. Climbing up rope ladders is physically exhausting the the fitness of the person is important. Provide anchoring system for the safety harness while climbing up rope ladders inside vessels.
