Learners will cover legislation, guidance and best practice.  With elements including risk assessment, hazard identification, classifying confined spaces, safely entering a low risk confined space, safe systems of works, control measures, atmospheric monitors, effective communications, emergency and non-emergency scenarios and rescue from low risk confined spaces.

Rescue is a vital part of all confined space working, regardless of the risk level.  The regulations state that rescue must be planned for prior to entry and that the equipment and adequately training personnel must be immediately available for rescue if needed.
