Confined Space Rescue Awareness
Did you know that?
• Over 1.5 million workers enter confined spaces on an annual basis.
• Injury or death can occur from asphyxiation, falls, heat, and electric shock.
• More than half of the confined space fatalities are from would-be rescuers.
Case - RECOGNITION AND RESCUE (Fatalities = 1 worker + 1 rescuer)
On March 8, 1984, a 20-year-old construction worker died while attempting to refuel a gasoline engine powered pump used to remove waste water from a 66 inch diameter sewer line that was under construction. The pump was approximately 3,000 feet from where the worker had entered the line. The worker was overcome by carbon monoxide. A co-worker, who had also entered the sewer line, escaped. A 28-year-old state inspector entered from another point along the sewer line and died in a rescue attempt. Both deaths were due to carbon monoxide intoxication. In addition to the fatalities, 30 firefighters and 8 construction workers were treated for carbon monoxide exposure.

Are you prepared to respond to a confined space incident?
Or are you prepared to become a statistic
In the course, we will answer all kinds of questions, including:
• What is a confined space?
• What constitutes a confined space emergency?
• What are the responsibilities of the parties involved?
• What are the hazards associated with a confined space?
• How do I fit into the Emergency Response System?
• How can I maintain site control and scene management?
• How will I communicate with others during an emergency?
• Are there any non-entry rescues I can effect?
Terminal Objective
Upon the successful completion of this module, you will be able to recognize the need for a confined space rescue and identify associated hazards.
Upon the successful completion of this module you will be prepared to safely operate in a confined space rescue at the awareness level.
Enabling Objectives
1. Define confined space and confined space emergencies.
2. Describe the responsibilities of the employer and the employee as they relate to non-entry confined space emergencies.
3. Identify the possible hazards at non-entry confined space emergencies.
4. Identify the components of the Emergency Response System (ERS).
5. Identify the components of site control and scene management.
6. Describe how to establish contact and communications with victims.
7. Describe and select non-entry retrieval methods

SCAFFOLDING SAFETY
* Scaffolds include any working platform, work stage, gangway, run ladder or stepladder.
*A competent person must direct the erection, alteration or dismantling any scaffold.
*In accordance with your procedure or that of your client regulations, a competent person shall inspect all materials and scaffolds before they are used and enter these inspections into the proper register. These inspections shall be carried out weekly for all scaffolds erected for over 7 days.
*Every scaffold shall be properly maintained and every part fixed, secured or placed in position in order to prevent, so far it is practicable, accidental displacement.
*All scaffolds shall be inspected daily and enter into the weekly register.
*All scaffolds shall be inspected after daily weather condition likely to have affected its stability. The main points to be checked are the following: -
1. BASE: standards pitched on base plates and adequate timber sole plates.
2. Place standards correctly aligned and not damaged or displaced.
3. LADGERS: no undue deflection.
4. TIES and BRACES: adequate and effective.
5. COUPLERS: correct type in use in and properly tightened.
6. GUARDRAILS and TOE BOARD: in place to prevent falls wherever men or materials could fall from more than 2 meters.
7. LADDERS: in good conditions, properly supported and secured.
SCAFFOLDING ACCESS.
Ladders shall be of good construction, suitable and of sound material, of adequate strength for their purpose and must be properly maintained and stored.
1. All ladders shall be positioned in such a manner to prevent falling or slipping. Ladders shall stand on a base equally and properly supported on each slide. The ladder shall be securely fixed near its upper end.
2. Approved ladder shall only be used for any type of work involving electrical hazards.
SAFETY BELTS
The use of safety belts/ harnesses shall be mandatory, when working on a height more than 5 meters from the ground.
WARNING SIGNS
After inspection, a warning notice shall be displayed stating it's conditions.
• UNSAFE: KEEP OFF in a red colour letters.
