The CSA Z1006 Standard ‘Managing Work in Confined Spaces’ identifies eight roles (not necessarily eight people) who have specific duties to carry out within an organisation, if you work in ‘confined spaces’. We offer the following courses that can run at your site:

  1. Management Introduction to Confined Spaces
  2. Awareness/Entrant – the worker going into the space
  3. Attendant/Vessel Watch – the person assigned to monitor hazards outside the space
  4. Bottle Watch – looking after a supplied air system
  5. Attendant with Non Entry Rescue – the person assigned to monitor hazards training also includes performing non-entry rescue using a winch and tripod/davit arm
  6. Entry Supervisor
  7. Rescuer
  8. Rescue Team Leader

Each of these roles requires expert training.

Are you prepared to do this confined space entry on your own?

Question: What confined space training do you need?

Answer: Ontario Regulation 632/05 covers the need for confined space training is Sections 8 and 9. However, if the workplace is a Project under Ontario Regulation 213/91 you need to refer to Section 9.1

The items listed are somewhat vague. However, if you look at CSA Z1006 Standard “Managing Work in Confined Spaces it covers things in more detail.

The Standard recognizes different levels of training required to perform confined space work. Besides an understanding of the rules and the hazards involved, these roles also need skills training. The four primary roles and their subsequent skills include:

  1. Entrant – proper PPE donning and use, the recognition of hazard exposure
  2. Attendant – proper PPE donning and use, incident notification, gas monitoring and/or other hazard detection controls, protective equipment set up and operation
  3. Rescue – patient handling, mechanical advantage system deployment, proper PPE donning and use, supplied air respirator donning and use, medical treatment etc.
  4. Supervisor – hazard assessment, selecting appropriate protective equipment, developing procedures, enforcing rules

Unless instructors are bringing confined space gear, most often, you will only be getting awareness training or Entrant Level training. For all other levels, additional time and equipment are needed to develop adequate skills. Seek courses that focus on the skills required and the specific equipment utilized in the field.

Lastly unless the equipment is specific to your organization, the training may not adequately prepare you to use your equipment and additional training is required.
