Overview

A fourth component that is often overlooked is the ability to retrieve a worker should they become suspended in the system.A fall protection system is only effective if the ability to rescue the suspended worker is planned for and available. This one-day training program will educate students on the fundamentals of industrial rescue and the basic techniques used to retrieve a worker suspended in a fall arrest system. Participants will learn course content through a combination of direct instruction, workbook exercises, and multiple ‘hands-on’ rescue skills workshops.Course participants are those who would assist in the retrieval of a worker while under the supervision of a competent rescue leader.
