I think you were unintentionally brushing off the OP.

You surely meant "No, they are not required"

No offence meant to the OP, Bob. On reflection though, you are correct. My one word response could have looked like it was the answer to his 'please give me your feedback' request.

No.

The correct answer would be:
It is not normally necessary for personnel working from a Vertical lift to wear fall protection equipment, other than in exceptional circumstances.
The need for a fall protection system will be the outcome of a job specific risk assessment undertaken prior to work commencing and taking into consideration the manufacturer’s operators’ manual.
