OSHA requires a trained, competent, properly equipped rescue team be available for response anytime people are working in permit-required confined spaces or working over or near water. ANSI requires a trained, competent, properly equipped rescue team be available for response anytime people are working at height. Some facilities use their own in house rescue team but many facilities out source these vital services to offsite rescue teams while others simply cross their fingers and hope nothing happens.
ERT, Inc., can provide the personnel for these potentially dangerous jobs, freeing up your personnel for their normal plant jobs. All of our rescue team members are trained in first aid and CPR, confined space and high angle rescue, as well as swift water rescue. We have provided rescue standby teams on top of 400-foot-tall flare stacks, for excavations, in many different types of permit-required confined spaces and on the dangerous waters of the Mississippi River. We have the experience, training and specialized equipment to perform these operations properly, providing your workers a safer work environment.
