TRAINING

Confined Space Awareness / Entry Training

Any worker exposed to the hazards of a confined space require training based on Ont. Reg. 632/05. We come to your site to offer a comprehensive review of the regulation and workplace requirements. What does the regulation say, how does it apply to us, how do we make sure we are working safely and compliant? By the end of our 4 hour course you and your employees will have solid working knowledge of the legislation and their responsibilities within it. We take the time to review your permit process and documentation to ensure consistency throughout your organization. We have had great feedback from this program and believe that our creativity and ability to adapt it to your workplace make it invaluable.

Site Specific Practical Demonstration

Max Class Size – 12

Duration – (additional 4 hrs to Awareness / Entry Training)

For those employees who require a higher degree of understanding of the process we can provide an additional 4 hrs of practical training. Working in small groups the instructor will lead your employees through the company’s Confined Space procedures and documentation. A practical demonstration of the entry process, roles and responsibilities, atmospheric testing and provisions for rescue may be provided. All related equipment for the entry to be supplied by the company.

Confined Space Industrial Rescue

A further requirement of the legislation is the ability to rescue a worker from the confined space. The company can chose to third party this responsibility out or they may choose to train and perform the rescue in-house. Depending on the frequency of entries and complexity of the space your company may decide it makes sense to train in basic rescue techniques.

Here is the main benefit of our rescue course. Many training companies will train your employees to NFPA (Firefighting Rescue) standards. In our opinion this creates a problem in that the rope based rescue skills are difficult to grasp and retain without significant training. The equipment they use is expensive and the techniques can be complex. We have decided to provide training that focuses on a few basic techniques with equipment that can be used for virtually every space. Less focus on ropes and knots and more focus on patient care and simple extrication techniques. The result is more capable and confident rescuer. We call this an Industrial Rescue course as it blends standard rescue practices and equipment with simplified rescue procedures. Our focus is on safe entry for the rescuer, proper patient assessment/care and basic retrieval that works every time.
