Rescue Plan Rescue from Scaffold Ladder Rescue If a mobile elevating work platform is not available, use ladders to rescue the fallen worker with the procedure outlined below. If the fallen worker is suspended from a lifeline, move the worker (if possible) to an area that rescuers can access safely with a ladder. Set up the appropriate ladder(s) to reach the fallen worker.Rig separate lifelines for rescuers to use while carrying out the rescue from the ladder(s).If the fallen worker is not conscious or cannot reliably help with the rescue, at least two rescuers may be needed.If the fallen worker is suspended directly from a lanyard or a lifeline, securely attach a separate lowering line to the harness.Other rescuers on the ground (or closest work surface) should lower the fallen worker while the rescuer on the ladder guides the fallen worker to the ground (or work surface).Once the fallen worker has been brought to a safe location, administer first aid and treat the person for suspension trauma and any other injury.Arrange transportation to hospital if required. Rescue from MEWPS Failure of upper control functions while elevated Where the normal upper control functions fail, the operator will use the auxiliary controls from the platform to lower the boom safely to the ground Failure of the operator to be able to operate the MEWP functions while elevated due to the following reasons:- A. Operator incapacitated B. Auxiliary functions fail to operate from upper control station Where the operator is incapable of lowering the MEWP using the upper controls, an appointed person familiarised in the use of the lower 'ground' controls will lower the platform safely to the ground using the lower ground controls Failure of lower ground controls Where the lower ground controls fail to allow the boom to be lowered safely to the ground, the appointed person will use the auxiliary ground controls to lower the boom safely to the ground Failure of ALL normal and auxiliary lowering functions Where all normal and auxiliary functions have failed, the appointed person on the ground should refer to BS8460 section 6.6 Rescue from height
