CONFINED SPACE ENTRY &
ATMOSPHERE TESTING TRAINING
Minimum of 6 participants required per course.
Confined Space Entry Training BC. Confined spaces in the workplace pose a significant risk of injury and death. Hazards in confined spaces can result in fire, explosion, unconsciousness, asphyxiation, or drowning. Confined space incidents can happen suddenly, often without any warning that something is wrong. Employers must take the necessary steps to ensure worker safety around confined spaces. A confined space is an enclosed or partially enclosed area that is big enough for a worker to enter. The space may be enclosed on all sides (for example, a bin or tank), or as few as two sides (for example, an enclosed conveyor). Confined spaces are not designed for someone to work in regularly. They are places where entry may be needed from time to time for inspection, cleaning, maintenance, or repair.
The Occupational Health and Safety Regulation in BC requires the employer must ensure that each confined space in the workplace is identified, and determine whether any such space will require entry by a worker, either in scheduled work activities or as a result of foreseeable system failures or other emergencies. Our Confined Space Training program will provide supervisors, entrants and attending workers with the information needed to understand the potential hazards of working in these spaces and the requirements necessary to control those hazards prior to entry. Our Confined Space Entry & Atmospheric Testing course also provides information to individuals required to perform monitoring and worker duties for personnel working in a confined space.
