If not, it might fail, and those who depend on the product for their safety could suffer severe personal injury or death.

COURSE OVERVIEW

The Gas Monitor Competence Training is a requirement, not a luxury, for the simple reason that the gas detector – the only piece of equipment the worker’s life hinges on – is NOT INCLUDED in OSHA Confined Space Entry curriculum. OSHA courses alone leave workers ill-equipped to safely and confidently operate their gas detectors. This course is tailored to your specific monitor and offers what you won’t find in manuals or YouTube videos. The Gas Monitor Competence Training bridges the gap between being “compliant” and being “safe,” combining elements of a confined space refresher with the features of the gas monitors that are most beneficial to the workers, thereby aligning more effectively with 1910.146(h)(2).
