Confined space workers put themselves at immense risk every time they enter a potentially dangerous atmosphere. They face risks like exposure to Carbon Monoxide (CO), Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), and combustible gases. The only tool they have to lower these risks is their gas detector. So, do these workers receive training on how to operate these lifesaving devices? Unfortunately, hardly ever. The law only requires that confined space workers receive Confined Space Entry (CSE) training which rarely covers the operation of the gas detector. Hence, any worker who doesn’t know how to operate their device is risking his/her life.
Gas Monitor Competence Training, a TINOSI company, aims to change this dysfunctional system. The company knows that most confined space workers only superficially understand the only device that can protect them. That’s why their training programs aim to educate as many workers as possible. No confined space worker should be at increased risk due to a lack of knowledge. That’s the attitude at TINOSI’s Gas Monitor Competence Training.
Gas monitoring devices are amazing at informing workers about potentially combustible gases nearby. However, these devices depend on sensors to provide accurate readings. These sensors can befin to give inaccurate readings. Unfortunately, CSE training doesn’t teach workers how to correct inaccurate gas monitors.
At Gas Monitor Competence Training, workers receive a completely different brand of education. They go beyond learning about the main dangers in confined spaces. Students get to understand what types of gases pose them the most risk in terms of physical damages. They learn the correct and incorrect responses to alarm events. What happens when the gas monitor’s readings suddenly start fluctuating? What to do when you’re 20 feet underground and your gas monitor detects the presence of Carbon Monoxide? These are the realistic questions that students learn to answer in Gas Monitor Competence Training.
There are various myths surrounding gas monitoring devices. For instance, many workers think bump tests are good enough to correct their monitoring devices. In truth, the bump test is the fast, simple way to prove the detector is working properly. And did you know that there is more than one type of bumper test?. When you are underground and your gas monitoring device has an issue, it’s too late to learn then!
With a course from Gas Monitor Competence Training, workers learn the basic and advanced functions of their gas monitoring devices. They learn details like pump and non-pump operations. They learn about the different sensors on their gas monitoring devices. They also learn a secret “trick of the trade” way to quickly fix their detector on the jobsite.
Workers become experts in gas monitoring devices after completing Gas Monitor Competence Training. Safety professionals and workers who want to take this amazing training course can get more information at gasmonitorcompetence.com.
