Confined Space Entry and Safety

Confined Space Entry And Safety (1)

Location Erbil

Fee $130

Sunday, 29 June 2025

Course Overview:

Confined space entry is an essential yet high-risk activity across various industries, particularly in manufacturing, oil & gas, construction, and utilities. This course provides participants with comprehensive knowledge and practical skills to safely manage confined space operations, ensuring compliance with safety regulations and preventing accidents. Participants will learn about the hazards associated with confined spaces, risk assessment strategies, safety measures, emergency preparedness, and legal requirements, all aimed at reducing risks to personnel and maintaining a safe working environment.

​

Learning Objectives:

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  1. Identify confined spaces and the specific risks associated with working in them.

  2. Understand the regulatory requirements and best practices for confined space entry as per OSHA, ANSI, and other standards.

  3. Assess and mitigate risks to ensure the safety of personnel entering confined spaces.

  4. Implement safety protocols including hazard assessment, atmospheric testing, and ventilation.

  5. Develop and practice emergency response plans for confined space incidents.

  6. Understand and apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and other safety measures.

  7. Execute confined space entry procedures through scenario-based training and simulations.

  • Roles and responsibilities of workers, supervisors, and safety officers.

  • Permit-required confined space vs. non-permit-required confined spaces.

  • Legal and ethical considerations for confined space work.

12:30 - 13:30 | Lunch Break

13:30 - 15:00 | Session 3: Confined Space Risk Assessment and Safety Measures

  • Hazard identification and assessment before entering a confined space.

  • Atmospheric testing: How to monitor oxygen levels, flammable gases, and toxic substances.

  • Ventilation systems and purging techniques to ensure a safe atmosphere.

  • Control of entry: Lockout/tagout (LOTO), permits, and access control.

  • Personal protective equipment (PPE): Respirators, harnesses, and other essential gear.

  • Rescue plans and standby personnel: Importance of having trained rescue teams on standby.

15:00 - 15:15 | Break

15:15 - 16:00 | Session 4: Emergency Preparedness and Response

  • Emergency rescue plans: Procedures for rescue in confined spaces.

  • First-aid and CPR for confined space accidents.

  • Scenario-based exercises: Participants practice developing and responding to emergency situations.

  • Communication protocols during confined space operations.

16:00 - 16:30 | Session 5: Review, Q&A, and Course Conclusion

  • Review of key concepts and best practices covered in the course.

  • Open Q&A session to address specific concerns or queries.

  • Final thoughts on improving confined space entry safety within the workplace.

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of the course, participants will have:

  1. A clear understanding of the types of confined spaces and associated hazards.

  2. Knowledge of the essential regulations and standards for safe confined space entry.

  3. Practical skills to conduct confined space risk assessments and implement safety measures.

  4. Familiarity with personal protective equipment (PPE) and emergency response techniques.

  5. The ability to develop and implement emergency plans and procedures for confined space operations.

Methodology:

  • Interactive presentations: Delivered with visual aids, case studies, and real-life examples.

  • Group discussions: Allowing participants to share experiences and challenges.

  • Practical exercises: Participants will engage in confined space simulations, hazard assessments, and emergency drills.

  • Q&A sessions: Providing participants the opportunity to clarify doubts and discuss best practices.

Certification:

Upon successful completion of the training, participants will receive a Certificate of Completion for Confined Space Entry and Safety.
