4.3.1 Operations in the event area:

1. Secure the area: with demarcation or other mechanisms, the rescue maneuver area
must be secured, so that third parties are not affected or affect the rescue processes.

2. Evaluation and planning of the operation: This moment is critical, it is when the
maneuver, equipment to be used and everything that should be involved in the rescue
process are decided. At this point the rescuer's ability is tested.

3. Rescue of the injured: The rescuer, through a maneuver, takes the injured person and
moves him to a safe place, this is where it is seen if the evaluation and planning of the
maneuver was adequate (depending on the characteristics of the event, there are
different types maneuver)

4. Stabilization and referral of the injured party: After being in a safe place, the rescuer
must stabilize the injured party and refer them to a place where medical assistance is
provided.

5. Evacuation of the rescue maneuver or process: Space where possible errors or failures
of rescuers or equipment are evident. This step is essential for feedback to the rescuers.
It is important to evaluate the performance of rescuers for the improvement process.

6. Verification of the condition of the rescuers: If necessary, in this step a medical


examination of the rescuers must be carried out, which ensures their healthy condition.

8. 3.3 Rescue processes


8.1.1.1 Self rescue

If the person working at heights makes appropriate decisions and uses their own
equipment to perform self-rescue, 90% of fallen workers will perform a self-rescue that should
include:

1. The worker will be able to go back up to the level from which he fell (a few centimeters
to 0.60 or 0.90 m).

2. The worker may return to the ground and take all necessary components of his or her
fall arrest system out of service.
3. The worker will save and label the components with their name, date and activity at the
time of the fall and deliver it to the responsible person.

8.1.1.2 Mechanical traction system assisted by cable or rope system

If self-rescue is not possible then an assisted mechanical rescue will be necessary. The
following guidelines should be used during a mechanically assisted rescue.

1. The lifeline will be brought to the worker, which will be held with one hand, the lifting
mechanism will be operated during a mechanically assisted rescue.

2. The worker may return to the ground and take all necessary components of his or her
fall arrest system out of service.

3. The worker will save and label the components with their name, date and activity at the
time of the fall and deliver it to the responsible person.

8.1.1.3 Mechanical traction system assisted by cable or rope system with ladder help

1. Ascend the ladder taking into account its stability, do not carry items in your hands that
could make your safe ascent impossible. Take the following material with you:

a. The end of the rescue rope to be used anchored to a safety carabiner.


b. The wind tip to be used anchored to a safety carabiner.

elektron HEIGHTS
OCTOBER 2014
WV ELECTRICAL MATERIALS PAGE 8 of 21

2. Avoid twisting the rope when it passes through the carabiner twice; if this happens, the
descent will not occur.

3. Mooring for descent. For the affected person, anchor the rope that passes through the
carabiner to the ring on the back.

4. Verify the injured person's state of consciousness. Establish whether the affected
person responds coherently to questions. The questions you should ask must be
answered before you ask them. From this moment on, keep the affected person awake
as much as possible. Remember in this step your priority is to lower the affected person
to be able to provide quick and timely care.

5. Ice the victim until he or she is close to the rescuer to a place where he or she can
stabilize and maneuver.

6. Inform rescuers on the ground or second rope that the rigging is ready and the patient
is anchored to the new descent line

7. Prevent the affected person from hitting themselves with any element
8. Disconnection of the life line of the affected person.

9. Lift the affected person in such a way as to distend the affected person's lifeline in order
to be able to undock him/her and facilitate his/her descent.

CAUTION: “Do not disconnect the rope until the second rescuer on the rope is restraining the
patient.”

10. Safety gear for the descent of the affected person.

11. Rescuer 2: Attach a safety carabiner to your harness to the front eyelet; connect the
carabiner; Secure the carabiner and pass the rope through it twice and then pull until it
is as taut as possible.

12. Only when the affected person is insured by the ground rescuers will this action be
carried out.

13. Observe safety rules to avoid injuries. Descend the affected person slowly and in
coordination with whoever is in charge of the affected person's wind, preventing them
from hitting themselves.

14. Communication between rescuers: Be attentive to the instructions of Rescuer 1


regarding the descent of the affected person and pull the wind when required by
Rescuer 1 and in the direction indicated.

15. Every time the hand is separated from the body, the patient will descend; upon
returning to the body, the patient will stop his descent.

16. Be attentive to the indications of the first and second rope to be able to direct the
affected person in their descent.

17. Maintain communication between those involved in this operation.

18. Before reaching the ground, the neck immobilizer must be placed.

a. Brigadier 1: Do traction on the cervical vertebrae, do not release it until the


immobilizer is placed correctly.

b. Crewman 2: Place the front of the Thomas immobilizer and lower the patient.

c. Brigadier 3: Remove the harness, helmet and anything that may make it
impossible to place the immobilized person.

d. Brigadier 2: Place the rear part of the immobilizer.


19. Lay the affected person on the rigid stretcher.
20. Once on the ground, the emergency crew will stabilize the patient according to first aid
protocols.

21. Patient stabilization and remission.

22. If necessary, transfer the patient to a healthcare center.

23. Always maintain Biosafety implements during the time you are in contact with the
patient, even more so if we have the presence of body fluids.

24. Only if spinal injury is suspected do you proceed to break the harness.

8.1.1.4 Rescue systems using a lifting platform

The worker is left hanging conscious or unconscious and is left in a position that does
not allow the elevation of the lifeline and there is no other way to perform the rescue. A man
lifting the victim is the preferred method of Mechanically Assisted Rescue, using the following
guidelines:

1. The worker will ride the aerial lift and make sure there is a sling for the rescued worker.

EMERGENCY ATTENTION PLAN AT REVISION DATE:


elektron HEIGHTS
OCTOBER 2014 PAGE
WV ELECTRICAL MATERIALS 10 of 21

2. The lift will be maneuvered into position (locate below the worker) to perform the
rescue.

3. Connect the sling to the lifting platform and then to the worker to be rescued.

4. Disconnect arresting equipment affected by the fall

5. Lowers the worker to the ground

6. Provide first aid to the worker if necessary.

7. The worker may return to the ground and take all necessary components of his or her
fall arrest system out of service.

8. The worker will save and label the components with their name, date and activity at
the time of the fall and deliver it to the responsible person.
8.1.1.5 Rescue system with rescuer descent

It is possible that no other mechanical rescue system is available, so the descent of a


competent rescuer will be necessary to secure the worker and lower him safely to the ground.
Keep the following considerations in mind:

1. The worker will locate a safe anchor point, using certified systems (anchor tapes,
mobile anchors or tie off).

2. You will descend using a descent kit and an extra lifeline connected to your dorsal ring.

3. The worker will connect to an external line or to his rescue harness if there is no other
way to reach the injured worker.

4. Through different load handling methods (pulley system or hoist) the worker will be
freed, unhooking him/her; when this is not possible, the rescuer must cut the fall
protection system using a knife.

5. The freed worker will be raised or lowered to the ground with the descent system or
alongside the rescuer.
6. Provide first aid to the worker if necessary.

EMERGENCY ATTENTION PLAN AT REVISION DATE:


elektron HEIGHTS
OCTOBER 2014 PAGE
WV ELECTRICAL MATERIALS 11 of 21

7. The worker or rescuer will take all necessary components of the activated fall arrest
system and place it out of service.

8. The worker or rescuer will save and label the components with the name of the
components with the name of the victim, the date and the activity at the time of the
fall and will deliver it to the responsible person.

WARNING: Technical rescues must be carried out by people trained and equipped for this
purpose; rescues are not permitted by improvising elements for this purpose.

8.1.1.6 Self rescue with ladder

1. Install the ladder as close to the worker as possible.

2. Place the ladder at an angle of approximately 75 degrees to the horizontal. Its stringers
must extend at least 0.5 m above its support and verify that the ladder lock is already
activated. Install safety guylines on each side of the ladder. Establish two people to
support the stability of the ladder, while the affected person climbs or descends it.

3. Check the windings of the ladder, that it is secured, and check the descent of the
affected person, always resting his or her hands on the uprights of the ladder. Establish
the three support points as a rule for ascending or descending the ladder.
4. Ask the person affected to lean on the ladder, ascend two steps and free themselves
from the line that holds them in order to descend.

5. Perform secondary assessment to rule out physical damage to the affected person.
Request a secondary first aid assessment.

6. Once this step is completed and if it warrants the transfer of the affected person to a
medical center.

9. 3.4 Completion of the rescue process.

1. Identification of circumstances that could become potential risks, additionally, the


recording of evidence that could provide valuable information for the analysis of the
causes of the accident.
2. Collect, inventory and check equipment: in this step the equipment used is inspected,
taking into account making the report and indicating those that have suffered damage.

3. Consolidate information: normally information consolidation formats for rescue


maneuvers are determined, where the personnel, equipment, results and important
information for monitoring rescue operations are described. It is the responsibility of
rescuers to document all rescue actions as best as possible since they involve saving
lives and, in addition, they may be involved in legal processes, where possible deaths
are investigated. This formalized information can help a lot in the processes in which
they are involved.

4. Report availability of rescue personnel, taking into account those who have reported
availability to attend similar events where they can get involved according to their
capacity.

4.4. Suspension of activities.

The suspension of activities will only be carried out when there is a situation of
imminent risk, this with the purpose of safeguarding the life, physical integrity or health of the
workers.

Situations in which the following requirements are met (OHSAS) are considered serious
and imminent risk:

- There must be a risk of death or serious physical injury; that a part of the body is
damaged in such a way that it cannot be used or whose use is incomplete.
- In the case of a health risk there must be a reasonable expectation that hazardous
substances or other health risks exist, and that exposure to them would shorten life or
cause a serious reduction in physical or mental capacity. The damage caused by the
health risk does not have to be evident immediately.

The danger must be immediate or imminent. This means that one must believe that
death or serious physical injury will occur within a short time.
