ABSTRACT:
A system for preventing a worker from falling off of a billboard. The system comprises a safety rope and a pair mounting assemblies formed of interconnected links. Each mounting assembly is mounted adjacent a respective side of the billboard and comprises a connector connected between the links for securing the rope thereto. Each of the mounting assemblies is movable between and stowed position and an extended position and vice versa. Each connector is located closely adjacent the rear surface of the billboard when its associated mounting assembly is in the stowed position, and is located spaced in front of the front of the billboard when its associated mounting assembly is in the extended position. The rope is connected tautly between the connectors when the mounting assemblies are in the extended position to serve as a sliding anchor point to which a safety device, e.g., safety belt or harness, worn by a worker may be releasably secured.
