Oregon OSHA releases free course on confined space safety
Salem, OR — Oregon OSHA is offering for free its latest training course on keeping workers safe in confined spaces.
The two-hour course features information on protecting workers from hazards in confined spaces, requirements for safely working in these spaces and ways to improve safety.
It includes an explanation of permit-required confined spaces, along with details about equipment, rescue and training requirements.
A quiz at the end lets students test themselves on what they’ve learned. Links to resources for employers also are provided.
A Spanish version of the course will be released soon, the agency said.
