CONFINED SPACE ENTRY COURSE
Confined Space Entry training is suitable for both supervisors and staff. Each year dozens of workers die when entering confined spaces. These deaths are preventable. People who enter into confined spaces must take precautions to protect themselves. The course is designed to provide knowledge and competence in basic safety in confined space entry procedures and equipment used during the process. The course is approved by the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC DIT).
Course Objectives:
The goal of this course is to provide staff and supervisors with the facts on what a confined space is, what different types of emergencies may require, and what types of equipment they may need in dealing with a confined space emergency. As with other HR Classroom training, employers can fully document trainee activity. Your organization’s own policy can also be inserted directly into each training.
