OSHA Confined Space Construction & General Industry

This self-paced course was designed to meet your company's stringent standards as well as OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1207, 29 CFR 1910.146, and those referenced under ANSI/ASSE Z117.1-209. During the course, learners will learn how to comply with these regulations and follow nationally recognized safe industry practices when entering and working in confined spaces.

In this course, you’ll learn how OSHA's new confined space regulations affect construction and general industry workers and the pitfalls surrounding the proper designation of workplaces such as how the type of work conducted determines which regulations (general industry or construction) OSHA will apply, how those regulations affect workers and employers (including multi-employer worksites) how employers manage these sites, and the specific training employees must have to enter confined spaces on Multi-Employer sites.

Who needs Confined Space Training?

Employees who perform construction work in or around confined spaces or provide direct support to those who enter confined spaces need training and certification.

Individuals certified or pursuing certification in other Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) areas, such as HAZWOPER, Hydrogen Sulfide Awareness, and Emergency Response will also benefit from this course!
