Safety is paramount to all ventures, be it school students on an overseas expedition, researchers carrying out fieldwork or holiday companies running commercial adventure programs.
Our safety consultancy, far from placing impractical restrictions on your activities, aims to find practical suggestions to improve your venture's safety.
It is essential for the continuation of fieldwork and expedition activities that we all look to continue to improve safety. In the case of holiday organisations it can even provide a commercial advantage to be able to offer a higher level of safety backup and provision.
As with all our services we offer a wide variety of options depending on your needs. For student groups this may be just providing 24 hour incountry backup or safety advice. For commercial companies or larger organisations we are able to provide risk assessment of your activities and emergency responce design.
Dependant on your needs this may involve assessing your evacuation capacity, designing safety provisioning through to implementing any staff training in first aid or search and rescue, and providing medical kits and other emergency equipment.
Please get in touch to discuss your plans. We are happy to give informal advice regarding safety planning wherever we can. We would be happy to discuss your plans or your organisation's operations and how Fieldskills can work with you to enhance safety and emergency backup for you.

Emergency response consultancy
for The Royal Society’s
South East Asian Rainforest
Research Programme
http://www.searrp.org/
The Royal Society’s programme
in South East Asia is centred at the Danum Valley, a
protected forest dedicated to research which covers
some 438 square kilometres.
Fieldskills provide the Research Management at Danum
Valley with a full risk assessment and incident management
system. Working closely with the senior scientist we
have prepared an incident management manual. This state-of-the-art concept
will help to ensure that not only is Danum Valley the
most outstanding tropical forest research station it
is also the best prepared.
