Confined Space & Working At Height Rescue Teams

Confined spaces and working at height present a unique set of dangers, including atmospheric hazards, engulfment risks, and limited egress. Even with meticulous planning and safety protocols, emergencies can arise.

A rescue plan is essential for work in any high risk areas. Where risk assessment deems that self rescue could be compromised, the asset or site owner must ensure that those working in that area are supported by appropriate Rescue Team.

This can be a standalone provision for a small provision or as part of a wider Integrated Safety Services scope.
