Platinum Safety and Training offers on-site training for all your confined space training requirements.
Confined space training is required for people working in confined spaces. As defined in the Safe Work Australia Code of Practice, a confined space means an enclosed or partially enclosed space that:
• is not designed or intended primarily to be occupied by a person; and
• is, or is designed or intended to be, at normal atmospheric pressure while any person is in the space; and
• is or is likely to be a risk to health and safety from:
• an atmosphere that does not have a safe oxygen level, or
• contaminants, including airborne gases, vapours and dusts, that may cause injury from a fire or explosion, or harmful concentrations of any airborne contaminants, or
• engulfment.

Some common examples of confined space in the workplace are storage tanks, pressure vessels, boilers, pipes, pits, sewers and silos.
