Safely Enter Confined Spaces in your Workplace
The purpose of ERGT Australia’s Enter Confined Space (ECS) course is to provide personnel with the skills and knowledge to enter confined spaces as part of their usual work routine under a confined space permit. On completion of the Confined Space entry training course, personnel will be able to safely enter a confined space in accordance with the conditions outlined in an issued permit. Personnel working under a permit to work will be able to understand the system, know the limitations of the permit under which they are working and comply with all the requirements of the confined space permit.
ERGT’s Confined Space course is designed for individuals who require safe entry to confined spaces under a work permit and for maintaining safety while working in the confined space. These individuals would typically be required to enter confined spaces for any work-related purpose, including maintenance, cleaning, inspections or other reasons.
