CONFINED SPACE AND ATMOSPHERIC TESTING

Training to ensure you can plan, observe and safely enter confined spaces.

This course combines confined spaces training and the use of gas testing equipment. It is about the safety of people who enter or are associated with confined spaces and ensuring that a safe atmosphere exists to permit work to be carried out.

Hazards and risk management in confined spaces are covered, roles and responsibilities of all parties, and the maintenance and operation of gas testing equipment.

Our course covers both theory and practical in our purpose-built training facility to provide realistic scenario experiences. We can customise the course to your workplace, as well as deliver it on your site.

Participants finish the course being able to:

• Demonstrate knowledge of confined spaces, and their permit notification and implementation requirements.
• Identify control measures to eliminate, isolate, and minimise the risk of hazards in confined spaces.
