Confined Space Entry for General Industry

To comply with federal regulations, OSHA requires employers and employees to be knowledgeable in all aspects of worker health and safety before and during a confined space entry. These regulations apply to workers in the general industry as defined by OSHA standards OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1207 and 29 CFR 1910.146 plus ANSI/ASSE Z117.1-209.

In this course, you'll learn how OSHA's new confined space regulations affect workers and the pitfalls surrounding the proper designation of workplaces. Including how the type of work conducted determines which regulations (general industry or construction).

OSHA will use and how that affects the worker and employer, including multi-employer worksites, how employers manage these sites, and what training employees have for entering confined spaces on Multi-Employer sites.

OSHA's ability to widen the enforcement to include federal regulations and national standards (related to the type of site your employees work on) can have a demonstrable effect on your risk management approach, especially when they are not widely understood.

This course covers the correct way to comply with federal regulations and follow nationally recognized safe industry practices when entering confined spaces. With a proper understanding of these applications, employers and workers work together to reduce and prevent serious injury, illness, or death when working in and around confined spaces.

We designed this informative, self-paced online training course to allow participants the opportunity to gain knowledge and comprehension regarding confined space safe entry while providing a thorough understanding of government regulations and how they follow the appropriate recognized, safe industry practices.

Any employees who enter confined spaces or provide direct support to those who enter confined spaces will need this training!

Individuals who are certified or pursuing certification in other Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) areas, such as HAZWOPER, Hydrogen Sulfide Awareness, and Emergency Response, will benefit immensely from taking this course!
