Confined Space Low Risk
Cost
| Group Booking Maximum 10 delegates | £880 |
Overview
The aim of this 1 day course is to provide the theoretical knowledge and practical skills when operating in a confined space. A confined space is defined as ‘a space that is not fit for human habitation’ which can be due to limited access and egress. Serious injury can occur from hazardous substances or dangerous conditions within the space or nearby. It can be any space of an enclosed nature.
Who should attend
Comprehensive training is still important to keep people safe in low-risk confined spaces where the depth/height is below 3 metres. This course ensures that all employees have knowledge of safe working methods in low-risk environments. This course is suitable for anyone who works in a low risk confined space, in which there is adequate natural or mechanical ventilation, where access appears simple and unobstructed, and there is no likely risk of flooding for example meter pits, valve chambers and stairwells.
Course content
At the end of course delegates will be able to:
