A high-risk confined space with an NC4 classification is typically a space posing a specific risk to workers. They cannot eliminate or control the risks to an acceptable level and usually require breathing apparatus to operate in the area.
Description
The City and Guild’s Level 2 Award in Working in High-Risk Confined Spaces Course (6160-03) equips delegates with the necessary skills and knowledge to work safely as part of a team in classified high-risk confined spaces. Delegates will learn and understand the procedures and equipment they need to perform their work safely, aligning with industry standards and regulations. This course also covers medium risk entry with the safe use of escape sets.
In this comprehensive course, delegates will cover preparations to enter and work safely in a high-risk environment, enter and exit confined spaces safely, use equipment and tools, follow procedures, and deal with emergencies and major incidents effectively.
The practical and theoretical learnings will equip delegates to;
- Understand the relevant and current confined space legislation
- Recognise and classify a high-risk confined space
- Produce safe systems of work for entry into high-risk confined spaces, including a point of works risk assessment.
- Recognise diseases and understand the necessary personal hygiene requirements associated with high-risk confined spaces
- Know how to correctly and safely use atmospheric monitoring equipment
