  A \u201cconfined space\u201d is considered as any space, of an enclosed nature, with a reasonably foreseeable, specified risk of Fire or Explosion, Overheating, Bad Atmosphere, Drowning or Free Flowing Solids.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

      Benefits of Work at Height training<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n

      Second to Respiratory related illnesses only, Work at Height is the 2nd biggest cause of workplace deaths throughout the UK across all industries. To safeguard both the employer and employee, training on working at height procedures and processes is a MUST to avoid potential life changing injuries, if not death to an employee. A suitable and sufficient risk assessment for high risk activities must be carried out with the necessary safety precautions implemented and controlled - the only way to ensure legal and practical compliance is by attending one of our informative Work at Height courses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

            What is COSHH? <\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n

            COSHH is the law that requires employers to control substances that are hazardous to health. You can prevent or reduce workers exposure to hazardous substances by:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

            \r\n\t
            • finding out what the health hazards are<\/li>\r\n\t
            • deciding how to prevent harm to health (risk assessment)<\/li>\r\n\t

            • planning for emergencies<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n

              Most businesses use substances, or products that are mixtures of substances. Some processes create substances. These could cause harm to employees, contractors and other people.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

              Sometimes substances are easily recognised as harmful.

              This is a method used for checking that a tight fitting face piece matches the person\u2019s facial features and seals adequately to the wearers face. It also helps to ensure that poorly fitting face pieces are not selected for use. An inadequate fit will significantly reduce the protection provided to the wearer.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

              If a fit test is not performed, then an unsatisfactory seal \/ barrier may unknowingly exist. This could allow excessive leakage of airborne contaminants into the wearer\u2019s breathing zone, even though the user is wearing a respirator correctly selected for the application.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

              The wearer should not eat, drink (except plain water), smoke or chew gum for at least 30 minutes before the test.<\/p>","assessment":"

Learners will be expected to imitate these procedures correctly prior to fit testing to confirm understanding. During the fit test, led by our tutor, learners will be directed to perform several test procedures in accordance with the INDG 479 guidance to test the integrity and seal of the mask over a period of time.<\/p>","certification":"

                A fit test should be carried out as part of the initial selection process for RPE and where an untested facepiece is in use.

                                Product Overview<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n

                                This configuration is for use where there is a form of access and egress to the confined space (such as a ladder down a man hole). It offers fall arrest protection and a method to raise the casualty in an emergency without entering the confined space. The Tractel tripod is the only Tripod on the market which has lifting points rated to 500kg. This makes this product ideal for material handling as well as height safety applications.<\/p>\r\n
