OSHA Confined Space Training

Are you required to enter confined spaces?

Do you work as an attendant in a confined space job?

Do you work in sumps, pits, pipes, tanks, silos, or tunnels at your job?

Do you conduct work in or enter permit-required confined spaces?

Then, you are required to take this course! Our online OSHA confined space training course is designed to comply with OSHA’s standard for confined spaces and safety procedures, Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations Part 1910.146 “Permit-Required Confined Spaces,” which contains the requirements for practices and procedures to protect employees in general industry from the hazards of entry into permit-required confined spaces (i.e., permit spaces). The OSHA Confined Space standard requires employers to develop a written confined space entry permit program and provide employee training in confined space safety.

According to OSHA, many workplaces contain spaces that are considered “confined” because their configurations hinder the activities of employees who work in them. A confined space has limited or restricted means for entry or exit, and it is not designed for continuous employee occupancy. Confined spaces include vaults, tanks, storage bins, manholes, pits, silos, process vessels, and pipelines.

WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS CLASS?

Employees who may enter confined spaces with potential hazards are required to receive OSHA confined space safety training.
