When emptying a tank in a confined space, the safety of the employee is very important, and if an employee faints, it is necessary to perform emergency rescue.
The following are the steps for emergency rescue:
Stop the operation immediately: In the case of fainting, cut off the power supply to all the equipment for the emptying operation at the first time, and let the other employees stop the operation immediately.
Call the emergency number: Call the emergency number and tell the location of the scene, what is happening and what to call for help, and request medical assistance. Tell the medical emergency personnel about the scene so they can accurately determine what first aid equipment and tools are needed.
Removing the Employee: Remove the employee from the confined space quickly. If the employee is still conscious, he or she should be laid flat on the ground in a safe area, keep the airway open, loosen clothing, lower the head, and help the employee adjust his or her breathing rhythm if he or she is breathing and has a heartbeat.
Performing first aid: If the employee has lost consciousness or suffered a respiratory or cardiac arrest, CPR and other first aid measures should be performed immediately and continued while waiting for medical assistance. If there are other personnel who know first aid, you can have them perform first aid operations.
In short, in the restricted space tank emptying operations, the safety of employees is always the first place, if there is a personnel accident, we must take the first time to take emergency measures to protect the lives of employees. At the same time, in the future operation, should strictly abide by the relevant safety norms, strengthen the safety training of employees, and effectively do a good job of employee safety protection.
