Confined Space Rescue

Level: Skill | Type: Classroom | Discipline: Health and Safety

Course Summary

Confined spaces present significant risks across many industrial environments, requiring specialized skills to ensure safe operations. This course equips rescue teams and designated personnel with the essential knowledge and practical training needed to perform confined space rescues effectively and safely.

Confined Space Rescue training is mandatory for individuals who may be required to carry out rescues as part of their job responsibilities. In facilities with Permit-Required Confined Spaces, particularly those with hazardous atmospheres, a qualified rescue team must always be available on site.

Course Objective

The objective of this course is to prepare participants with the knowledge, skills, and confidence required to safely and effectively conduct rescues from confined spaces. The training aims to:

  • Equip rescue teams with the competencies needed to meet operational and regulatory requirements.
  • Ensure participants can identify confined space hazards and implement safe entry and rescue procedures.
  • Train individuals to respond effectively to emergencies in both non-hazardous and hazardous (Permit-Required) confined spaces.
  • Promote compliance with industry standards and workplace safety regulations while enhancing overall site emergency preparedness.

Activities

  • Classroom - Listening and contributing to discussions and exercises (group Discussions and workshops).
  • Interactive role plays for incident response and interviews.
  • Microlearning video
