This Confined Space Course is centered around helping individuals understand the associated risks of working in confined spaces. From the potential hazards of working in a restricted space, to what type of injuries occur, and understanding the legal requirements.
Around 15 people per year are killed in confined spaces within the UK alone. Some of these fatalities can be due to being trapped, injured or poor ventilation. Key legislation to help protect workers' health and safety is the Confined Spaces Regulations 1997. This regulation outlines what duties should be upheld by employers and self-employed persons, what emergency procedures should be in place, as well as what is defined specifically as a ‘confined space’.
Confined spaces are a regular part of many job roles, but due to improper training and knowledge, they can cause serious injuries or, in some severe cases, death. Due to this, it is essential that all employees who undertake work within confined spaces are trained adequately and aware of the dangers surrounding this line of work.
If the work within a confined space cannot be avoided, it is essential that a risk assessment is in place and that every person who is entering the confined space is sufficiently trained and instructed to know how to undertake the work safely and the actions to take if an accident or emergency does arise. Employers hold a duty of care to all their workers, so it is important that they provide the proper training and equipment for all members of staff who work in confined spaces.
If your job involves working within confined spaces, then this training will benefit you. It is for both managers and employees as it touches upon the roles and responsibilities that both roles hold.
It is of high importance that anybody who is required to carry out work within a confined space is thoroughly trained and aware of the risks and hazards that they may be exposed to.
