Training for low-risk confined spaces is designed for individuals working in environments classified as confined spaces, where hazards are minimal and well-controlled.
• Technical and service personnel who occasionally enter low-risk confined spaces.
• Individuals conducting inspections and assessments, e.g., in manholes, tanks, and ventilation ducts.
• Maintenance workers and technicians requiring short-term access to confined spaces.
• Engineers and technicians who need to periodically assess the technical condition of equipment inside such spaces.
• Subcontractor employees performing short-term work in confined spaces classified as low risk.
This training is suitable for individuals who do not work in high-risk environments, such as those involving hazardous substances, oxygen-deficient spaces, or explosion risks.
Prerequisites
• Minimum age of 18 years.
• Good physical condition.
• No contraindications for working at heights.
Objective
Examples of Low-Risk Confined Spaces:
• Ventilation ducts with permanent access and good airflow.
• Technical rooms with proper air circulation.
• Cable chambers with easy access and no entrapment risk.
• Tanks and chambers where there is no risk of toxic gases or oxygen deficiency.
Course content
• Definition of confined spaces and risk assessment.
• Employee responsibilities and safety procedures.
• Rules for atmospheric monitoring and ventilation.
• Personal protective equipment (PPE).
• Emergency and evacuation procedures.
• Proper use of equipment for working in confined spaces.
