Rescue from height
Course objectives
This unique course has been developed to assist our clients to ensure adequate plans have been developed to ensure height workers who rely on fall arrest measures for protection can be rescued swiftly in the event of a fall occuring.
It does not give intensive instruction on how to effect a rescue from height - it is designed to assist persons who would be involved in the planning of rescue measures and in the selection of suitable equipment fit for the purpose.
We will carry out practical demonstrations of rescue equipment if a suitable venue is provided by our client.
