The employer shall ensure that every worker who enters a confined space or who performs related work, receives adequate training, in accordance with the relevant plan, to work safely and properly; Confined Space Awareness courses should be an effective and interactive way to keep you and your employees up-to-date with Confined Space training requirements. This course is designed to create awareness of hazards, precautions, and the regulations associated with confined spaces; it will be especially helpful for those workers whose jobs are related to permit required confined spaces. The learning objectives are to Understand confined spaces and their types, Comprehend the responsibilities of the employers and workers, Explore the major provisions of the Occupational Health and Safety Act, recognize hazards associated with permit-required confined spaces and their precautions. The confined spaces training course will help you to identify, define and classify a confined space, define a permit-required confined space, refer to the standards and the regulations related to confined spaces, better understand the hazards associated with confined spaces, work safely within a confined space, follow the procedures associated with confined space entry, identify the proper safety equipment needed in confined spaces, and prepare an emergency response plan.
OSHA has a new 8 hour confined spaces training program that aims to make the student:
- Understand the scope & application of OSHA's various confined space entry standards
- Identify "Confined Spaces", then determine if they are "Permit Required"
- Understand OSHA requirements for developing and maintaining a "Permit-required confined space entry program" / permit
- Know responsibilities of entrants, attendants, entry supervisors, contractors
- Identify when you may utilize OSHA's "Alternate Entry" and "Reclassification" procedures
- Understand the requirements for "Rescue & Emergency Services"
- Have a basic knowledge of the general use and limitations of related equipment

What best describes the term entry supervisor specifically pertaining to the USF Confined Space Program?
an authorized employee responsible for determining whether acceptable entry conditions are present in a confined space before authorizing entry; overseeing the confined space operation, and terminating the confined space entry
Each organization having tasks requiring entry into confined spaces is primarily responsible for implementation of its related portions of the confined space entry program in close coordination with?
the Confined Space Program Team (CSPT)
What document is mandatory on site when entry into a manhole is required?
confined space entry permit
What is the maximum concentration of oxygen allowed for safe entry into a confined space?
23.5%
What is a non permit confined space?
A non-permit confined space is an area that meets the definition of a confined space but does not require a permit for entry according to OSHA regulations. This typically means the space does not have any hazardous conditions that could pose a risk to workers, such as toxic fumes, lack of oxygen, or the potential for engulfment. However, it is still important for workers to be aware of the space's limitations and potential hazards. Safety procedures should be followed, even in non-permit confined spaces, to ensure worker safety.
What does it take to obtain a confined space entry permit?
In order to obtain a confined space entry permit, you will need to apply for it on the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries. The form s located under the WISHA portion of the website.
What describes the function of the Master Entry Plan?
Confined Space Program Team (CSPT)
What does confindence mean?
a limitation area one entry & exit is called confined space.
What is the expiration date on a permit for confined space entry?
The expiration date on a permit for confined space entry typically varies based on the regulations of the issuing organization or agency, as well as the specific conditions of the work being performed. Generally, these permits are valid for the duration of the work being conducted within the confined space, often not exceeding a single shift or workday. If conditions change or if the work is not completed within that timeframe, a new permit may need to be issued. Always refer to the specific safety guidelines and procedures in place for your organization.
What Florida schools offer confined space entry training?
I would look at Florida State Universtiy. They have many great progtams including space entry training.
What is a characteristic of a confined space that makes it a permit-required confined space?
A confined space is designated as a permit-required confined space if it contains or has the potential to contain hazardous atmospheres, such as toxic gases or insufficient oxygen. Additionally, it may have a configuration that could impede entry or exit, and it may pose other safety risks, such as engulfment or entrapment. These characteristics necessitate a formal permit system to ensure safety measures are in place before entry.
The individuals that are required to have both site specific confined space training and general confined space program training include?
entrants, entry supervisors, attendants, rescuers, testers and/or monitors
