Description
29CFR 1910.146
CCR Title 8, §5156, §5157, & §5158
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) reports
an average 67 deaths per year due to fatal incidents within confined spaces.
In 1993 the California Occupational Safety and Health Administration
adopted the new confined space rule that places responsibility on the
employer for development and enforcement of confined space policies. This
regulation sets standards for preventing employee exposure to confined
space hazards.
Training
The employer shall provide training so that all employees whose work
is regulated by the confined space regulations acquire the understanding,
knowledge, and skills necessary for the safe performance of the duties
assigned
SafetyGENI™ offers several levels of Confined Space Entry courses.
2 Hour Confined Space Awareness
There are two types of confined spaces: Those that require a permit
for entry and those that can be entered without a permit. This
course is designed to inform the students about the difference
between a permit-required confined space and a non-permit-required
confined space.
Course content includes: Identifying a confined space; when a permit is
required; typical hazards; atmospheric monitoring equipment; personal
protective equipment; ventilation equipment; exposure symptoms; and an
exam.
8 Hour Confined Space Competent Person
This course is specifically designed to increase the student’s
knowledge of hazards associated with permit-required confined
space entry. This course is a site specific course and will incorporate
the employer’s policy and procedures for entering a confined
space. As much as possible, we will train with the employer’s
confined space entry hardware, monitoring devices, and personal
protective equipment in order to provide training that is useful
as well as effective.
Course content includes: Definition of a confined space and permit required
confined space; entry procedures; required elements of a confined space
program and permit system; hazards; ventilation; lockout tagout procedures;
equipment; duties of the entrant, attendant, and supervisor; evacuation
and rescue procedures; closing an entry operation; and an exam.
