Rescue from Height

Fall from Height
The regulatory compliance to the safety standards helps Barsha to take organisations through the complexity of professional rescue and industrial work at heights. If a person falls from height and is hanging there, the risk still hasn’t passed. Studies have shown that even an uninjured person who is hanging from height runs the risk of incurring a suspension trauma within 20 minutes leading to a life-threatening situation. It becomes necessary to have effective rescue system in place to rescue the person before the worker suffers a suspension trauma. Effective fall protection strategy requires identification of risk, available infrastructure and space and a combination of products that work together to mitigate the risk. A comprehensive solution including body support, the anchorage, connecting device and rescue system is developed for a complete fall protection system, improving the safety environment.

Barsha has garnered on ground expertise through years of partnering with clients across industry segments and collaboration with global giants in the area of safety. Barshsa accesses an array of options from automatic to manual and single to multiple users to enable organisations to deal with emergency situations to provide comprehensive safety solutions in extreme work environments.

There are two types of rescue systems recognized by OSHA

• Self-Rescue, which includes the use of a personal fall arrest system, and proper use of PPEs.
• Assisted Rescue, which involves another trained worker who promptly responds to a fall and initiates the rescue protocol immediately.
