Safety training

GWO Advanced Rescue Training Standard / V5 02052025

Share experience of work situations, where haste or other constraints, such as hazards from adverse weather and environmental conditions, did or could have led to poor work safety

In a practical exercise with different hand tools and other relevant objects, individually point out the following 3 points:

a.

Tethering point (on the tool)

b.

Tether,

c.

Anchor point and attachment point

During practical training scenarios and activities ensure that hand tools and other relevant objects are tethered before working at height

Receive the instructor’s feedback and adjust tethering accordingly

Take part in the discussion about awareness of tethering, due diligence, and safe work in demanding situations, such as emergency procedures and drills, and adverse weather and environmental conditions, where tools and equipment may be hastily handled or misplaced

During practical training exercises, apply principles of dropped object prevention including correct selection of tether and appropriate storage

On their own initiative, perform buddy checks in relation to safe tethering of additional equipment (tooling, mobiles, radios)

Examples of potential dropped objects:

a.

Small items in pockets

b.

d.
