Confined Spaces Training

Accredited Confined Space Safety Training in South Wales and On Site

Work in confined spaces can become dangerous very quickly. In some cases, workers may face toxic gases, low oxygen levels, or restricted escape routes. For this reason, proper training is essential. It helps workers understand the risks and apply safe working methods before entry.

At Evolution Safety Solutions, we provide Confined Spaces Training for low, medium, and high-risk work. We deliver training at our centre in Abercynon, South Wales, and we also deliver courses on site at client premises across the UK. Our courses hold EUIAS accreditation, include EUSR registration, and align with the Energy and Environmental Awards framework.


Course Overview

Our confined space courses cover:

  • Low-risk confined space work

  • Medium-risk confined space entry

  • High-risk confined space operations

  • Legal duties under the Confined Spaces Regulations

  • Safe systems of work and permit procedures

  • Emergency planning and rescue awareness

  • Certification and EUSR learner registration

As a result, employers gain clear evidence that workers have received suitable instruction.


What Is a Confined Space?

A confined space is an enclosed or partly enclosed area where serious injury can occur due to hazardous conditions. For example, risks may arise from gases, liquids, or a lack of oxygen.

Typical confined spaces include:

  • Tanks

  • Silos

  • Pits

  • Sewers

  • Chambers

  • Ducts

Because these areas restrict movement and escape, workers must prepare carefully before entry.

Legal Duties Under the Confined Spaces Regulations

The Confined Spaces Regulations require employers to avoid entry where possible. However, if entry cannot be avoided, employers must assess risk, create safe systems of work, and provide suitable training.

In addition, employers must plan emergency arrangements before work begins.

You can review the Regulations summary here:
https://www.hse.gov.uk/confinedspace/regulations.htm 

Therefore, structured training forms a key part of legal compliance.


Low, Medium, and High-Risk Courses

We match training to the level of risk present.

Low-Risk Training

This course suits environments where hazards remain minimal and controlled. It focuses on awareness, safe entry, and legal duties.


Medium-Risk Training

This course supports work where hazards increase. It covers atmospheric monitoring, permit systems, and structured control measures.


High-Risk Training

This course prepares workers for environments where hazards could cause serious injury or death. It includes advanced control measures and emergency planning awareness.


Accreditation and Registration

Our courses are:

  • Accredited by EUIAS

  • Registered on the EUSR (Energy & Utility Skills Register)

  • Aligned with the Energy and Environmental Awards framework

As a result, learners receive recognised certification and national registration.

Training Locations

We deliver training in two ways.

Firstly, delegates can attend our centre in Abercynon, South Wales. This setting provides a structured and controlled learning environment.

Alternatively, we deliver training on client sites. In this case, we tailor delivery to the specific work environment. Consequently, training remains practical and relevant.


Our Approach

Our approach remains clear and practical.

Firstly, we explain legal duties and common hazards.
Next, we focus on risk control and safe systems of work.
Finally, we reinforce emergency planning and communication.

Because of this structure, delegates leave confident and ready to apply what they have learned.
