safely at heights
New
Delhi, April 8th, 2025:
The Telecom Sector Skill Council (TSSC) has joined hands with KARAM Safety, a
leader in safety solutions and training, to introduce specialized courses aimed
at enhancing safety standards and skill development in height and rescue
operations. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) formalizing this
collaboration was signed on May 9, 2024. This partnership seeks to address
critical skill gaps in the telecom sector, equipping professionals with the
necessary expertise to work safely in high-risk environments. The training
programs extend beyond the telecom industry and cater to various sectors
requiring specialized skills in height safety and rescue operations.
Speaking
about the collaboration, Mr. Hemant Sapra, President, Global Sales and Marketing,
KARAM Safety, stated, "Our partnership with the
Telecom Sector Skill Council marks a significant step towards strengthening
safety practices in the telecom industry. KARAM Safety has been at the
forefront of providing world-class fall protection systems, personal protective
equipment (PPE), and fixed-line products, ensuring that professionals working
at heights have access to the best safety solutions. By integrating our
expertise with TSSC’s industry knowledge, we aim to build a strong foundation for
safety training that enhances workforce preparedness and reduces risks.”
Under
this initiative, the Height & Rescue Training (HART) course will provide
participants with enhanced safety knowledge, practical fall risk management
skills, expertise in handling and maintaining personal protective equipment,
and emergency preparedness. This two-day course consists of 15 hours of
training, followed by a three-hour practical and written assessment.
Participants who complete the course will earn an NCVET-approved certificate
with 0.5 educational credit points through Skill India.
The Rope
Operations, Tactics, and Rescue (ROTAR) course is designed to develop expertise
in rope techniques, hazard identification, and confined space rescues. It
focuses on team coordination and communication, safe working practices at
heights and confined spaces, and mastery of rope maneuvers such as rigging and
ascents/descents. The course spans eight days, including seven days of training
and one day for practical and written assessments. Successful participants will
receive an NCVET-approved certificate with 2.0 educational credit points issued
through Skill India.
The
courses will be conducted through classroom and practical training to ensure
hands-on learning.
