Salem, OR — Oregon OSHA has launched a Spanish version of its training course on keeping workers safe in confined spaces.
The two-hour course features information on protecting workers from confined space-related hazards, 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.
Oregon OSHA, which operates under OSHA’s State Plan program, has added a new video – available in both English and Spanish – to the course. “Practicing Confined Space Rescues” was filmed at a wastewater treatment plant in the state and highlights the facility’s rescue protocols.
A quiz at the end of the course allows students to test themselves on what they’ve learned.
