Confined Space Training: Ensuring Safety and Compliance
Confined space training is crucial for the safety and well-being of workers operating in restricted areas. Each year, many workers suffer injuries or fatalities in confined spaces, with an estimated 60% of these fatalities occurring among "would-be" rescuers. This alarming statistic underscores the importance of proper confined space certification and training to prevent such incidents.
What Constitutes a Confined Space?
Confined spaces can be found across various industries and include areas such as:
-
Silos, vats, hoppers, utility vaults
-
Tanks, sewers, pipes, truck or rail tank cars
-
Aircraft wings
These environments pose unique challenges and risks, making confined space training essential for those who must enter and work in them.
