Confined Space Entry

Who needs confined space entry training?

Anyone who enters, supervises or controls work in a confined space needs confined space entry training before the work starts – for example in manholes, tanks, vessels, shafts, chambers, ducts or pipelines. That includes entrants, the supervisors and line managers who plan the work and manage permits, and the standby attendants outside.

Entrants – workers who go into the space: this course.
Supervisors and line managers – who plan the entry and manage the permit to work: this course.
Standby attendants – who stay at the entrance: Manhole Watcher.
Gas testers – who test the atmosphere before and during entry: Authorised Gas Tester.
Rescue team members: Confined Space Rescue.

A restricted space is a location with a limited aperture that has a higher risk of injury. Tanks, vessels, silos, storage bins, hoppers, vaults, pits, manholes, tunnels, equipment housings, ducting, pipelines, and other confined spaces are examples. restricted space training provides knowledge and awareness in the construction industry by providing an overview of restricted space entry-related safety regulations.

Role-specific courses: Manhole Watcher, Confined Space Rescue and Authorised Gas Tester.
