ZRZ - Swimming Pool Supervisor

Join

Content

In the swimming pool, strict rules exist for supervision. This is logical because every drowning incident is one too many. That's why more and more organizations managing a pool require their employees to have the Swimming Rescue for Swimming Pools (ZRZ) diploma. Only with this diploma can you supervise a pool.
These requirements are also increasingly imposed on associations that rent the pool. Many associations do not have someone with this diploma and also do not have separate supervisors. In the future, this will become a problem for many associations as the reins are tightened further by owners.

You can help solve this by obtaining such a diploma if you:
  • have the ABC diploma
  • have a valid First Aid diploma from the Red Cross or Orange Cross.
  • have a VOG (Certificate of Good Conduct)
  • meet the requirements of the swimming test
  • are an active cadre member at the association or elsewhere in the swimming pool


Of course, you must be able to swim sufficiently yourself, which you achieve by actively participating in a swimming sport or otherwise keeping up with swimming.
An additional benefit is that as a young person, you'll find it easier to get holiday work at a swimming pool because you're qualified.
The course lasts about 35 hours if you have a First Aid diploma and usually takes place in Dordrecht over 3 days or in about 6 sessions at the Lifeguard Association. You'll need to attend theory and practical lessons, complete an assignment, and undergo a (practical) exam.

Content

In the initial rescue operation, you ensure that the victim receives first aid and that their condition is stabilized until other emergency services take over. However, after transferring a victim, your responsibilities continue.
You still need to consider:
  • Whether it could happen again with other individuals
  • Whether there are people who may experience fear or panic due to what happened
  • Understanding the cause and addressing it if possible
  • Assessing if there is a need for follow-up care for others who experienced the emergency

There may also be less severe incidents where you need to intervene. In such cases, victims are often conscious, and their behavior may not always be predictable. Therefore, you must proceed in a safe manner for yourself while acting promptly and clearly:
  • Determine whether to enter the water and how to do so
  • Approach someone in the water safely
  • Ask relevant questions
  • Prevent the situation from worsening
  • Free yourself if you are grabbed
  • Determine the best method for transporting someone under different circumstances
