What are the three broad categories a height-work rescue plan should cover, in increasing order of how much external help is needed?

A. First aid, CPR, defibrillation

B. Self-rescue, assisted (mechanically aided) rescue, and fully assisted rescue

C. Harness check, lanyard check, anchor check

D. Verbal reassurance, radio call, helicopter evacuation

A. It isn't unacceptable - the equipment arresting the fall is sufficient on its own

B. It only matters for work over water

C. Because surviving the initial fall means nothing if the worker then dies of suspension trauma while waiting for help that was never planned

D. It is only a paperwork issue, not a safety issue

A. A backup attachment point for tools

B. A decorative harness feature with no functional purpose

C. A strap used only by the rescue team, never the casualty

D. A deployable loop the worker can stand in to relieve pressure on the leg straps and reduce venous pooling while awaiting rescue
