Training Program Elements
It's important to have a strong confined space safety program to make sure all employees working in or around confined spaces stay safe and healthful. The training must establish employee proficiency in their duties and in new or revised confined space procedures.
Training should be provided to each affected employee:
- In both a language and vocabulary that the employee can understand;
- Before the employee is first assigned duties under this standard;
- Before there is a change in assigned duties;
- Whenever there is a change in permit space entry operations that presents a hazard about which an employee has not previously been trained;
- Whenever the permit audit shows deficiencies;
- Whenever there is any evidence of a deviation from the permit space entry procedures; and
- Whenever there are inadequacies in the employee's knowledge or use of these procedures.
