Confined Space Safety for Construction: Awareness and Compliance

About this course

This awareness course helps construction workers and supervisors recognise possible confined spaces, identify serious hazards, explain the duty to avoid entry where possible, and know when to stop and escalate. It introduces the need for a task-specific safe system of work and emergency arrangements. Completing this online course does not authorise entry, atmospheric testing, rescue, or supervision of confined-space work; these require suitable role-specific training and arrangements.

• Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment in Confined Spaces
• Controlling Risks: Hierarchy of Controls and Avoiding Entry
• Establishing and Maintaining Safe Systems of Work
