Working in Confined Spaces Training

Module one clarifies the definition of “Confined Spaces,” and why training for working inside one is essential. We also look at the UK and Irish laws that are in place for employees, which solidify the legal responsibilities of employers and property owners. The responsibilities of managers and other leadership positions are also examined.

In Module two, we fully explore the procedure of applying risk assessment to confined spaces, and how it should be conducted to produce the maximum effectiveness. The course also details the many types of hazards that can be encountered in this environment, and how to prevent any accidents or harm resulting from them. We consider the best ways to utilize the information from assessments and how to keep it relevant.

In Module Three, the course examines the many ways in which control measures can be put in place to prevent accidents in confined spaces. This leads to the benefits of installing a Safe Work System and the equipment that can be used to make the environment safer. We also look at the way communications, ventilation, and accessibility can be improved in a work environment. 

In Module four, we detail the procedures and equipment that are essential or helpful during an accident or emergency. This covers the way in which the workforce should interact with emergency services and the importance of first aid. The module also looks at fire safety and useful training in greater detail.
