NIMS (Nathan safety )is proud to announce new developments in the areas of water safety. The Dubai Municipality has introduced stringent measures to ensure the safety & security of pools, waterfronts and beaches. The necessity of adequately qualified lifeguards to man these areas has prompted the authorities to form a Lifeguard Scheme Committee, the findings and conclusions of which lead to the decision that lifeguards need to be adequately certified and licensed to perform their duties. The Lifeguard Scheme Requirement introduced by Dubai Accreditation Department – Dubai Municipality (Dac-Req-17: April 2015) has addressed these issues and specified certain pre-requisites, skills requirements and code of conduct for lifeguards on duty.

The Lifeguard Scheme Committee (LSC) has been formed choosing highly qualified professional individuals to establish standards to fairly set up and measure the knowledge and proficiency required for the safe lifeguarding of pool, water-parks and beachfront. The certifying body will be accredited by DAC for being fully compliant with ISO/IEC 17024:2012 Requirements for Certification Bodies to Certify Persons. NIMS (Nathan safety ) is fully in compliance with DAC Lifeguard Scheme Requirements to upkeep and enhance the safety & security of the community.
