b. rescue of an unconscious casualty hanging by a fall arrest lanyard (inside of the ladder) with the rescue equipment in an active setup
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 demonstrate the ability to reduce the risk of dropped objects
Note
During exercise 17.3.3 (reference to c.) the participant performing the rescue should use a rope clamp for rescue (to train the use of this equipment) and use the hip overhang technique to move the casualty away from the ladder
Formal assessment of knowledge (see Section 11.7)
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
