Course Details

Confined space is a term from labor-safety regulations that refers to an area which is enclosed with limited access which make it dangerous. An example is the interior of a storage tank, which workers may enter for maintenance but which is not ordinarily a habitable space.

Hazards in a confined space often include suffocation by unbreathable gases which may be present but not visible, submersion in liquids or free-flowing granular solids (for example, grain bins), or electrocution.

Confined space accidents are of particular concern in occupational health and safety because often multiple casualties occur when untrained rescuers succumb to the same hazard as the initial victim.

Confined space training outlines the skills and protocols for safe entry to confined spaces, and includes such precautions as lockout and tagout of any connecting piping, testing of breathable air quality, forced ventilation, observation of workers in the space, and a predetermined rescue plan with appropriate safety harness and other rescue equipment.

The aim of this course is to provide all course candidates with a firm understanding of the current legislation regarding confined space entry and safe work in a confined space. Including being able to identify the types of confined spaces and their hazards and the ability to enter a confined space and apply the safe and correct procedures for entry into, working within, and the emergency procedure for confined space operations.
