Even well-established organisations often have rescue plans that are outdated, unclear, or simply don’t match the risks their teams face. Poor planning can put lives at risk and make even the best training and equipment less effective.

A strong rescue plan isn’t just paperwork it’s the backbone of safe operations at height, in confined spaces, or in complex industrial environments.

“Falling can be fun, just ask anyone who’s been skydiving. It’s the sudden stop that causes the problem.”

When it comes to working at height, the danger isn’t the fall itself, it’s the impact trauma when you stop. That’s where fall arrest systems make the difference.

• Fall arrest systems are designed to reduce impact forces below 6kN.

• This gives your body (and organs) time to decelerate safely.

• Lanyards, inertia reels, and other devices help “steal” the energy out of a fall.

In this video, Andy gives a clear and practical overview of how fall arrest systems work and why correct use is essential.
