This course is delivered and assessed on behalf of Allens Training Pty Ltd RTO 90909 by OCD Training, Assessing & Consulting.

Course Summary

This Course Set – RIIWHS202E & MSMWHS217 – Enter and Work in Confined Spaces & Gas Testing is designed for new and experienced personnel required to work in confined spaces and carryout gas testing of an atmosphere prior to entering a specific area or workspace in the resources and infrastructure industries at an operational level.

Many roles require confined space training, including safety, injury prevention and maintenance personnel, engineers, risk managers, mine managers, cable installers and transport personnel and safety observers/ stand-by personnel.

Participants will learn to distinguish what constitutes a confined space; key terminology; as well as understand the regulations and legislative requirements governing entering and working in and around confined spaces.

Participants will identify hazards and emergencies as well as implement appropriate control measures; conduct risk assessments and apply for a confined space entry permit. Atmospheric testing is an important component of confined space work as these working environments may be hazardous, unpredictable, subject to time pressure, chaotic and expose responders to risk, on land or water, by day or night.

Workplace atmospheres may include visible and invisible hazards and hazardous surfaces.

Students will demonstrate howto enter, exit and work safely in a confined space according to an issued permit for two scenarios.

Participants will also inspect and select appropriate personal protective gear; operate various confined space safety equipment including atmospheric testing/monitoring devices and interpret the results to take appropriate action; and conduct routine servicing of all equipment and gear.
