Course Summary

This one-day course will teach you the skills needed to identify WHS hazards, assess risks and apply appropriate control measures when entering and working in confined spaces.

Our expert teaching team will ensure you have a sound understanding about the legislative requirements to confined spaces, including the Work Health and Safety Act 2012, Confined Space Codes of Practice, Confined Space Codes of Compliance and the current AS 2865: 2009 Confined Spaces.

In this course, you will also learn how to identify the limitations of permits under which work is to be conducted, how to assess risks prior to commencing any task associated with confined spaces and how to select, fit and wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) while monitoring equipment necessary to complete tasks safely. You'll also learn about the importance of the 'stand-by observer' role when operating as a member of a confined space work team.

This course does not require a High Risk Licence but TasTAFE issue a Competency Card. There is no expiration date and at present no requirement for a refresher, but a recommendation of every two years is made by most organisations for their workforce.
