Working at Heights

Wind Turbine Fall Protection and Rescue

Wind Turbine Parks are often located in remote areas where first responders are unable to reach a fallen worker, or simply aren’t competent or equipped to perform a rescue at 90 meters. It is critical that workers in wind energy are adequately trained to be able to safely climb and work, self-evacuate, and perform a rescue under circumstances that are very unique to wind turbines.

Course Breakdown

Our three-day Wind Turbine Fall Protection and Rescue course covers theoretical and practical material designed to help students understand the risks and control methods related to wind turbine work. We prepare students for the field by letting them execute various climbing, evacuation, and rescue techniques to build their competence in a controlled and safe environment with our expert instructors on standby.
