Confined Space training covers the identification of confined spaces, risk assessment, atmospheric testing, permit-to-work systems, rescue procedures and the Confined Spaces Regulations 1997.

Why Become a Confined Space Trainer?

Confined space accidents have a high fatality rate — 15% of those who enter a confined space to rescue someone without training die themselves. Qualified confined space trainers are needed in utilities, construction, manufacturing and agriculture.

What are the Confined Spaces Regulations 1997?
The Confined Spaces Regulations 1997 require employers to avoid entry to confined spaces where possible, follow a safe system of work if entry is unavoidable, and put in place adequate rescue arrangements.
What is a permit-to-work system?
