A lineman's safety strap assembly for attachement to a body belt, comprises: a pole strap having two ends; a cross belt strap extending between the two ends of the pole strap in order to form therewith a loop; the loop being able to open and close in order to engage and disengage the loop to and from a utility pole; two side straps; coupling clips for detachably connecting each side straps to the body belt; and connectors for connecting the side straps, cross-belt strap and pole strap together in such a manner that a lineman wearing the body belt is retained by the loop when the loop is closed around the pole and the body belt is connected to the side straps; at least one of the side straps being integral and continuous with the cross belt strap; the connectors means comprising a belt slide rigidly connected to at least one of the ends of the pole strap, for receiving and slidably holding the cross-belt strap. In the event of a fall, a weight of the lineman connected by the body belt to the side straps will apply a force on the at least one of the side straps and pull the cross-belt strap through the belt slide, thereby resulting in a shortening of the cross-belt strap and a tightening of the loop around the pole.
