Confined spaces can be dangerous, especially if a confined space entry is conducted poorly by untrained personnel. This training program and safety video explains the potential hazards of a confined space entry and how these hazards can be controlled with a proper confined space entry program. Reenactments of confined space accidents and confined space rescues are shown to teach the viewers the importance of following OSHA regulation; specifically OSHA regulation 1910.146 that requires practices and procedures, which protect workers from potential hazards during a confined space entry. This program will prepare viewers with the following:
- The definition of non-permit and permit required confined spaces
- How the entry permit system and confined space training works to ensure worker safety while entering, working in, or exiting a confined space
- The four types of atmospheric hazards and how atmospheric testing and monitoring is conducted to ensure a confined space is safe for entry and occupancy
- Other potential hazards that exist in a confined space and how these hazards may be controlled
