Confined space courses
Despite legislation and copious amounts of available information, injury and death in confined spaces still occur, sometimes with employers or employees being unaware of how the Confined Spaces Regulations 1997 apply to them.
Andy Richford at PASS, says: “A best practice solution is for employers to instil a basic awareness of these potentially lethal environments if they are unsure as to whether or not they have these environments, or whether or not their employees are ever exposed during their activities.”
Having had the initial training, employees will then be able to identify further training requirements should that be the case.
PASS holds specialist confined spaces training at its Northeast City & Guilds (C&G) approved location and is an industry-wide confined spaces specialist for utilities and facilities management in commercial and industrial environments.
