The working day
There are usually two lifeguards on duty at each post. At Post 1 there is a Lifeguard on Duty who has a coordinating role.
The working hours are primarily spent on preventive work, surveillance, patrolling and general first aid. The preventive work is done in close dialogue with the beach guests. We emphasize training in rescue skills and, not least, good hospitality in relation to the beach and harbor guests.
