Working in Confined Spaces (Self-study)

Safety training for work in confined spaces – protect lives and prevent accidents

Confined Space Entry – A Critical Safety Training

Every year, 40–50 work environment-related fatal accidents occur in Sweden – avoid becoming part of the statistics through the right knowledge and safety procedures.

TRAINING PROGRAM TO PROTECT LIVES WHEN WORKING IN CONFINED SPACES


Every year, there are 40–50 work-related fatal accidents in Sweden. Many of them occur in confined spaces (self-study) such as tanks, silos, wells, and tunnels—environments where the risks are high and the consequences can be fatal.

Working in Confined Spaces (Self-study) training provides participants with knowledge on how to prepare, plan, and work safely in confined spaces. The course covers both preventive measures and procedures for evacuation and rescue.

According to the Swedish Work Environment Authority, all enclosed spaces should be considered as potential risk environments and treated with the utmost respect.

After the Work in Confined Spaces training, participants receive a certificate certifying their competence to work in these environments.

Gustaf Cid Pérez

Head of Training & Certified Chemical Engineer

I founded Kunskapskontoret in 2012 because I saw a need for high-quality industry courses – at reasonable prices.

After 15 years as a chemical engineer, I realized how crucial it is to train employees in the work environment. I saw the connection between knowledge, awareness, and reduced accidents.

That is what drives me today: to help employers create safer, more productive, and happier workplaces.
