Description
This course is about working in confined space environments that have non-standard entries and which, in consequence, makes rescue difficult.
Entry may involve complex entry procedures and there will be work-specific controls and rescue arrangements. It will entail the use of a self-contained open-circuit breathing apparatus, specialist detection equipment, and resuscitation equipment.
It will require the presence of personnel who have designated responsibilities for controlling entry and dealing with emergencies.
