The person completing this course is required to perform work tasks in a confined space. This person is not required to act as a confined space standby (Observer) or a confined space rescuer. They are simply workers who are required to work under direct supervision in the space.
The course runs everyone through the process of hazard analysis for a confined space entry. They understand the process of completing a confined space risk assessment, and the need to have a detailed rescue plan in that risk assessment.
They are instructed on the regulatory requirement for a confined space permit, and what their responsibilities are when they work under permit conditions under the WHS Act. They also realise that the confined space permit must have all hazards, controls & PPE included on it, gas test recording, an entry exit log (and the need for workers to log into and out of the space) and the detailed rescue plan that all should be familiar with.
They should understand all the potential hazards that might be present in confined spaces, what controls should be in place to mitigate those hazards. At the end of the day this person knows what should be in place for them to enter a confined spaces safely, and when they are not to not enter that space until the appropriate controls are in place.
Practical – They are required to set up, gas test, use permit, and have people enter and exit a confined space, in our case using both a tripod and a davit and winch.
Those people considering working in the mines, this is generally the course required.
Participants will receive training in:
Confined Space Legislation & Workplace Hazards & Safe Work Procedures
Confined Space Risk Assessment & Documentation
Confined Space Entry Permits,br> Confined Space Equipment, using CF harnesses, tripods & VED devices
Participants are supplied the following learning materials:
This training will require you to participate in physical practical exercises. Ensure you are fully aware of the risks prior to participating and understand the control measures employed.
Public Courses – Our confined space course starts at 7:30am every Monday, Wednesday & Friday morning at our training centre in VILLAWOOD. The training hours for the day are from 7:30am to 3pm. This course takes only ONE DAY and finishes by 3pm.
Training at our site means you can send staff along for public programmes at times suitable to your work commitments. You can send up to ten staff, but for these numbers we would also arrange special dates/times for your group.
MSMPER205 Enter confined space
MSMPER200 Work in accordance with an issued permit
MSMWHS201 Conduct hazard analysis
This training can earn participants Continuing Professional Development points (CPD). For more details click here
If you require onsite training, we can book dates and times to suit you. We take up to ten staff on this course and will bring along our purpose built “Confined Space Training Trailer”. This trailer allows us to run realistic training for your staff that meets the practical requirements to attain the units of competency issued. For more details and video click here.
