c. rescue of a conscious casualty secured by their work positioning lanyard attached to the front attachment point of their harness (from the outside of the ladder)
The participants shall at all times during the exercises practice how to reduce the risk of dropped objects
Note
During exercise 16.3.6.a. The participant performing the rescue should use a rope clamp for rescue (to train in the use of this equipment) and use the hip overhang technique to move the casualty away from the ladder
During the rescue scenarios the participants who are not performing the exercise shall be in a safe area (at ground level) where they can familiarise themselves with setting up rescue equipment, rigging and operating the equipment for a rescue
Note
It is recommended to have the participants familiarise themselves with the rescue equipment while one rescue exercise is conducted and observe one rescue exercise
