From wastewater treatment facilities and sewerage networks to agricultural storage infrastructure and heritage building maintenance projects, confined space work is undertaken across a wide range of Tasmanian industries. These environments can expose workers to serious hazards including oxygen-deficient atmospheres, toxic contaminants, flammable gases, engulfment risks and restricted access during emergencies. Without appropriate planning, supervision and training, confined space incidents can have fatal consequences.
The nationally recognised RIIWHS202E Enter and Work in Confined Spaces course provides the practical skills and knowledge required to safely enter, work in and exit confined spaces in accordance with workplace procedures and industry requirements. Participants learn how to identify hazards, assess risks, work under confined space entry permit systems, undertake atmospheric gas testing and respond appropriately in emergency situations. Understanding whether a work area is classified as a confined space and recognising the risks commonly associated with confined space entry are essential foundations for safe work.
Delivered by AlertForce, the course leads to a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment upon successful completion. WorkSafe Tasmania is the state’s workplace health and safety regulator and requires employers to ensure workers are trained and competent for the tasks they perform.
The RIIWHS202E Enter and Work in Confined Spaces course provides nationally recognised training in hazard identification, risk assessment, atmospheric monitoring and safe entry and exit procedures. Participants learn how to identify confined space hazards, apply risk controls, operate under permit systems, conduct atmospheric gas testing, communicate with standby personnel and implement emergency response procedures. Training reflects recognised industry practices, including the principles of AS/NZS 2865 Safe Working in a Confined Space.

Statement of Attainment
Issued upon successful completion
Anyone required to enter or work in confined spaces such as tanks, pits, shafts, vessels, silos and pipelines.
Workers involved in infrastructure, excavation, utility upgrades and heritage restoration projects where confined space entry may be required. Many employers seek workers who hold both confined space and working at heights qualifications to support a broader range of site activities.
Workers performing inspections, cleaning, repairs and maintenance in enclosed or restricted environments.
Personnel responsible for overseeing confined space permits, contractor activities, risk controls and emergency arrangements.
Under Tasmania’s Work Health and Safety legislation, employers must ensure workers undertaking confined space work are appropriately trained and competent. Completing nationally recognised confined space training helps workers identify hazards, apply effective controls and follow the procedures needed to manage high-risk environments safely. Across Tasmania’s utilities, wastewater, construction and agricultural sectors, employers recognise the role that effective confined space training plays in reducing the likelihood of serious incidents.
