Confined Space Rescue

A confined space rescue team is a team of highly trained professionals in charge of developing and putting into action rescue procedures on-site, spotting potential risks, setting up and using rescue equipment correctly, taking care of employees inside confined spaces, and completing all necessary paperwork. 

• Confined Space Entry Rescuer

A confined space entry rescuer is skilled in risk assessment, process formulation, equipment selection, and rule execution. He is in charge of:

• • Checking that the entrance requirements are completed
  • Communicating with all participants and rescue team members to ensure that confined space emergency rescue procedures are understood before entry
  • Terminating entry if required
  • Leading the team in completing a rescue if it is judged essential

• • Keeping an eye on confined space entry permits 
  • Alerting rescue personnel when necessary
