A fall arrest assembly (11) for use, for example, with a vehicle (15) having a platform or a floor (12) elevated from the ground such as to present a fall hazard, comprising a number of impact absorbing units (19) which can be set out in an array. Each unit (19) comprises a casing (37) of flexible laminar material having a loose filling of particulate material. Restraining means (25) hold the array of units together with at least one face of each unit (19) lying substantially in a common plane so as to define a generally level surface to receive a falling person. The fall arrest assembly (11) includes means (42, 44, 46, 48) for locating the impact absorbing units in close proximity to an edge of the platform (12) of the vehicle to minimise the gap between the array of impact absorbing units and the platform or vehicle.
