Safety training

GWO Basic Safety Training / V19 02052025

Practise the ability to perform a passive mode and active mode setup evacuation from height using full PPE and a random evacuation device (demonstrated during this module)

Practise the ability to disconnect the device after reaching the ground level

Practise the ability to use techniques like attaching equipment to their harness to reduce the risk of dropped objects

During the evacuation scenarios participants who are not performing the exercise shall be in a safe area (at ground level) where they can familiarise themselves with setting up evacuation equipment and rigging the equipment for an evacuation

Note

An instructor shall be at the height chosen to descend from

Instructor(s) and participants shall be secured to an anchor point while waiting to descend (this can be achieved by correct use of the fall arrest lanyard)

When participants are demonstrating the evacuation, a safety line that is connected to the participants’ harness shall be used. This will be set up and controlled by the instructor and be secured to a separate anchor point other than that of the evacuation device

Although not a requirement of this standard, participants may repeat the evacuation exercises should sufficient time be available
