Enter Confined Space Refresher without Breathing Apparatus
Duration:
1 day - Max 12 students
Designed for:
Designed for students who have been previously trained in confined space units of competency.
Pre-requisites:
Students must already hold confined space competencies that are no older than 3 years.
Co-requisites:
Nil
Description:
This course is designed for students who are required to be re-assessed in entering a confined space, for maintenance purposes, for cleaning, inspection or other reasons. It is required by all students who are required to enter a confined space, as defined by the standard AS2865, or its authorised update or replacement.
Content:
The following content will be revised during the training:
- Access and interpret information relevant to specific tasks (eg labels, MSDSs hazchem signs)
- Access and apply hazard controls
- Describe and/or explain hazards associated with tasks covered by the permit, types of tests required for the issue of work permits - the types of tests to include, atmospheric/oxygen/ breathability, flammability/explosivity, toxicity/TWA, temperature, humidity.
- Interpret and respond to gas test/monitoring results/information.
- Identify a change in work conditions, possible new hazards and so the required hazard controls and obtain revalidation of permit
- Confined space entry procedures
Units of Competency
MSAPMOHS217A Gas test atmospheres
MSAPMPER200C Work in accordance with an issued permit
MSAPMPER205C Enter confined space
AS2865 requires reassessment 'at appropriate intervals'. The industry regards reassessment on a two to three year cycle as good practice.
Pre-entry Requirements:
To be eligible for refresher training, students must have completed confined space training within the last 3 years. This training requires a degree of physical activity.
Assessment:
The assessment process will occur through a combination of theoretical and practical assessment.
Delivery Method:
Competency confirmation will be achieved through 2 hours of theory revision, followed by a theory assessment. Following theory assessment students will be revised in confined space entry procedures.
