We understand the urgency felt by both trapped passengers and staff on site when a passenger becomes trapped in a lift. Even with a 1 hour response time, this can be simply too long in some circumstances and in this case, we recommend emergency release training. This course is designed for staff who are nominated to carry out the safe release of trapped lift passengers. It provides the competence to rescue passengers trapped in a lift in accordance with BS7255:2012 Safe Working on Lifts.
