Ropepro assisted Mentor HR and Little Creatures during a recent shut down period to safely access vessels and confined spaces at their Geelong Brewery site.
Maintenance within vessels was required during this shutdown and as such rescue capability was required.
When work is conducted in any hazardous environment, particularly working at height or in confined spaces, the capability to safely and efficiently rescue an injured worker is something that must be considered by personnel responsible for planning these works.
In order to carry out a rescue of an injured worker, consideration should be given to the following:
- Location of the work area
- Communication
- Rescue Equipment
- Capability of rescuers
- First Aid
- Local Emergency Services if they are to be relied on for rescue.

Ropepro has the capability to provide technicians to supervise and manage compliance in projects involving Confined Space Entry, Working at Height as well as preparing and implementing Rescue Plans And performing high level First Aid.
