RESCUE SERVICES
TIS (NGA) Ltd provide a fully trained rescue team to carry out various tasks whilst working in confined space conditions.
As per the 1974 Health and Safety at Work Act, keeping people safe whilst working is paramount in all industries. The regulations state that no one should enter or work in a confined space unless there are emergency arrangements in place that are appropriate for the level of risk involved in the task/space.
Our rescue team can perform the necessary assessment of the emergency and, if required, conduct any rescue needed in a safe and controlled way. Recovering casualties in the fastest possible time and administering first aid maybe the difference between life or death.
Attempting to carry out an unprepared rescue, without proper training or equipment only serves to put more people at risk within the confined spaces.
Unprepared people attempting an urgent rescue attributes for almost two thirds of deaths in confined spaces. Only a specialist rescue team should attempt any rescue.
The dangers of confined space working and working at height should never be underestimated. Having a competent and qualified team on site to provide rescue and first aid can save lives.
“Confined Space” means any place, including any chamber, tank, vat, silo, pit, trench, pipe, sewer, flue, well or other similar space in which, by virtue of its enclosed nature, there arises a reasonably foreseeable specified risk.
Hazards arise through the combination of the confined nature of the place of work and the possible presence of substances or conditions which, taken together, can increase the risk to safety or health. Hazards can exist in the space (e.g., fumes or a flammable atmosphere) or they can be introduced to a substantially enclosed space that otherwise would be safe (e.g., fumes released when using chemical cleaners).
Our rescue teams are trained in providing rescue from confined spaces and are also trained and qualified in rope access from IRATA. Allowing them to provide a high level of emergency rescue in a wide range of vertical or horizontal locations.
We take this work very seriously and the team follow strict procedures. Initial survey will be undertaken to competently compile a risk and hazard analysis of the work task and work area. From this an accurate and realistic rescue plan will be devised.
