Industrial Rope Acess

 

In Hungary there is a proffesion we call “Industrial Alpinism” which are known as industrial rope access.

In Hungary for the jobs that can be made by using rope access the prescriptions of Decree No. 11/2003 (IX. 12.) FMM of the Ministry of Employment and Labour on the Safety Code of Activites of Industrial Rope Access Technicians (ABSZ) are applied. (The translation of the Decree coming soon.)

 

Industrial Rope Access Activity (technique): for the purpose of doing the job, an intermittent (not continuous) activity in which the approach of the working area that exceeds the 2 metres difference, staying there, the execution of the job and the departure of the work place carried out by synchronized and simultaneous use of personal protective equipment and prescribed equipment (with Rope Access methods).

ABSZ 2.§ 8.

 

Prior to the current ABSZ the prescriptions of the Decree of the Ministry of Labour (Müm) no. 1/1995. (I. 6.) on the Safety Regulations of the Rope Access Technique were valid. In the new ABSZ, there were no major changes, so the most recent state of the regulation can be found under the same title always. The current ABSZ was modified in 2016 the latest, so compare to other safety regulations it can be regarded as modern and up-to-date.

Based on different rules the following qualifications and vocational levels are existing:
