Does anyone have any good examples of a rescue plan for persons working at height whilst using a harness? I can find lots of guidance stating that one is required, but I am struggling to find good examples that demonstrate a well thought out plan.

So much depends on where the rescue is taking place, ie a tower crane, cliff side, scaffold structure, tree. Are you working in remote areas or in an inner city location. The senarios are endless and it is likely that each will have slightly differing rescue plans. You may like to have a look at the WAHSA guidance document TGN05 at the following link. http://www.wahsa.co.uk/c...cman/task,cat_view/gid,5 Hope this helps.
