Confined Space Entry (CSE) procedures are made for the safety of those working in confined space. They are designed to prevent accidents and injuries caused by the accidental release of energy. The use of these procedures prevents workers from accidentally being exposed to injurious and even life-threatening situations with energized machinery and equipment.
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and an up-to-date overview of confined space entry. It covers the types of confines spaces areas that incudes confined spaces and non-permit spaces; the hazards commonly found in confined spaces consisting of atmospheric hazards and physical hazards; the basic emergency activities during a confined space emergency; and the proper air monitoring equipment necessary for a hazardous confined space entry.
The course also covers the types of areas on confined spaces; the evaluation and assessment of the hazards commonly found in confined spaces that includes atmospheric hazards and physical hazards; the hazardous atmospheres comprising of hazardous configuration and other recognized serious safety or health hazard; the proper safety equipment, ventilation and air monitoring equipment necessary for a hazardous confined space entry such as respirators and PPE; the appropriate hazard controls; why preplanning is essential to a confined space program; the duties, rescue and emergency procedures during a confined space emergency including isolation and tag out/lockout procedures, entry procedures and permit; and the confined space programs/training.
At the completion of the course, participants will be able to explain confined space entry rules and the responsibilities; demonstrate better safety behaviors and performance; and conduct activities to avoid harm to the health of the employees.
