Confined Space

Confined Space is one of the most dangerous and complex environments in the industrial, construction, oil and gas, marine and transportation sectors.

Many causes for fatality are due to inability to recognize or define confined spaces on job sites, for having lack of process in place for permitting entry, rescue or having a program detailing the means in how workers will be protected from the environment where they perform work.

This course is designed to bring awareness of the hazards and real dangers to organizations and their workers. It starts with understanding how to identify confined spaces and works through the organizational obligations to protect workers and the parties responsible for ensuring safe work exists.

We walk through real life case studies, using video clips to enhance learning objectives and stimulating conversation to better understand what safe work in these spaces looks like, and what crews should recognize as extremely hazardous when being asked to perform work in spaces where environments may be causal in serious injury or fatality.

This course discusses rescue types, it does not physically perform any rescue procedures. The content is intended to serve as awareness only. Employers are required to produce programs relevant to their industrial climate and demonstrate due diligence through offering records of training their employees.?
