Confined Space Rescue Team

When the work is done in a Confined Space, the company must assign a Rescue Team to be outside the Confined Space, entrances & exits so that they can rescue the workers inside the Confined Space when an emergency occurs.

Three types of Rescue Actions that can be done when an emergency occurs in the Confined Space:

- Actions to self-rescue from Confined Space are carried out when the workers can recognize danger & can get out of Confined Space without assistance. The act of self-rescue has many advantages as the Rescue Team does not need to enter the Confined Space & other risks will not occur. The workers who manage to save themselves & are still conscious will be able to recover quickly too & avoid serious exposure & injury.

- Actions to save the workers from Confined Space by retrieving them are carried out when the workers are unconscious. When this is done, the Rescue Team must ensure that the equipment to retrieve the workers can be used safely. One thing to consider when using equipment to retrieve the workers from Confined Spaces is that the presence of obstacles & twists can complicate the rescue process.

- Actions to save the workers by sending the Rescue Team to the Confined Space are taken when a major emergency occurs. This may also pose a risk to the Rescue Team. It must be ensured that the workers & the Rescue Team are using proper equipment (PPE, SCBA, harness, ropes & others). The communication must always be carried out by the Rescue Team who will enter the Confined Space, the personnel outside the Confined Space & the workers inside the Confined Space if they are still conscious.

For the action to rescue the workers in the Confined Spaces to be carried out safely, the Rescue Team must take the proper training, follow prescribed emergency & evacuation procedures & use appropriate rescue equipment. The rescue exercises in the Confined Spaces must also be carried out regularly.
