Accidents do happen: Are you prepared for it?

Accidents Happen
Are you prepared for Self and Partner Rescue?


August 12 – Pittsburgh

A few days ago a window cleaner in Seattle, WA slipped from his rope descending system and dangled 65 feet from the ground by his safety rope before firefighters were able to rescue him. If this were to happen to you or your fellow window cleaners, are you confident that you would know what to do?

Did you know that if you are suspended and need to be rescued, you only have 30 minutes before shock trauma sets in? In an accident, every minute counts. Make sure you and your employees have the skills they need to save others and themselves.
