IASP Confined Space Entry Training
Burraq Consulting proudly delivers the Confined Space Entry Training Course, accredited by the National Association of Safety Professionals (NASP), USA. This intensive one-day (8-hour) course provides the knowledge, skills, and regulatory guidance required for safe entry, work, and rescue in confined spaces.
Work in confined spaces is among the most hazardous occupational activities, with high potential for fatal injuries due to asphyxiation, toxic gases, entrapment, or explosions. This course is designed to meet OSHA 29 CFR 1910.146 standards and other international confined space entry guidelines, making it an essential qualification for all personnel who are involved in confined space operations—whether as entrants, attendants, supervisors, or rescue personnel.
What is a Confined Space?
According to OSHA and international safety regulators, a confined space is an area that:
- Is large enough for a worker to enter and perform tasks
- Has limited or restricted entry or exit
- Is not designed for continuous occupancy
Common examples include tanks, manholes, silos, pipelines, underground vaults, storage bins, and ship holds. While these spaces may not appear dangerous at first glance, they often present hidden atmospheric and physical hazards that can prove fatal without proper training, planning, and rescue capability.
Why is Confined Space Entry Training Essential?
In Pakistan and globally, incidents in confined spaces frequently result in fatalities—not only of the initial worker but also of those attempting rescue without proper training or equipment.
This course ensures your organization:
- Meets regulatory requirements from NASP, OSHA, and ISO 45001
- Prevents loss of life through safe work practices and emergency planning
- Reduces operational downtime by enhancing worker readiness
- Protects company reputation through demonstrable safety compliance
- Avoids penalties and liabilities associated with safety violations
Who Should Attend This Course?
This course is designed for personnel who may be involved in any stage of confined space operations, including:
- HSE Officers & Safety Managers
- Site Engineers and Supervisors
- Confined Space Entrants
- Attendants/Watchmen
- Permit Issuers/Entry Supervisors
- Rescue Team Members
- Maintenance & Utility Technicians
- Emergency Response Teams
Whether you’re operating in oil & gas, manufacturing, food processing, construction, utilities, or waste management—this training is critical for every team member who may encounter confined spaces.
