Confined spaces are significantly more hazardous than normal workplaces. The enclosed nature of the confined space makes it more susceptible to hazards. Even a minor error or oversight while working in a confined space can result in a fatal accident. Therefore, the workers entrusted to work in confined spaces, their supervisors, rescuers, as well as employers must be fully aware of the confined spaces, hazards associated with them, safe work practices, and precautionary measures, etc. This online training covers fundamental information about confined spaces and their hazards, as well as safe work practices, risk control measures, and emergency arrangements for confined spaces. The information shared in this training is significant for ensuring safety while entering or working in confined spaces and will help tremendously to increase the occupational health and safety of employees associated with work in any type of confined space.
