Confined spaces are enclosed or restricted areas where hazardous conditions can develop rapidly due to limited ventilation, restricted entry and exit, or the presence of dangerous substances. This course explains why confined spaces are dangerous and outlines the legal requirements for hazard assessment, entry planning, atmospheric testing, and emergency preparedness.
Achieve Safety’s eight-hour course prepares entrants, attendants and supervisors to understand Ontario confined-space requirements and apply entry procedures through practical exercises.
Under Ontario Regulation 632/05, a confined space is a fully or partially enclosed space that:
Both conditions matter.
Restricted entry or exit can increase the risk, but it is not a separate mandatory condition in Ontario’s statutory definition. The existing page currently presents restricted entry as part of the definition and should be corrected. Ontario’s confined-space regulation
This course provides awareness level training focused on confined space hazards, regulatory requirements, and safe entry expectations under Ontario law.

This course is designed for individuals who may be exposed to confined space hazards or involved in confined space activities and require awareness training under Ontario Regulation 632/05.
For workers who may be required to enter confined spaces or work in areas classified as confined spaces. Training helps workers understand hazards, entry requirements, and safe work expectations.
For supervisors who oversee confined space activities and must understand confined space hazards, procedures, and regulatory responsibilities.
For employers responsible for ensuring confined space hazards are identified, procedures are in place, and workers receive appropriate training.
Attendants need to monitor entry, remain in communication, recognize changing conditions, direct evacuation and initiate the emergency response.
Designed for workers who work near or around confined spaces but do not enter them.
Required for workers who physically enter confined spaces.
Specialized training for personnel responsible for rescuing workers from confined spaces.
Confined space work is subject to specific legal requirements under Ontario Regulation 632/05 due to the high risk associated with restricted spaces and hazardous atmospheres.
During inspections or compliance reviews, Ministry of Labour inspectors assess whether confined spaces have been properly identified and whether workers and supervisors understand the hazards and procedures associated with confined space entry.
Inspectors routinely check for:
Identification and classification of confined spaces under Ontario Regulation 632/05
Completion of hazard assessments prior to confined space entry
Use of appropriate atmospheric monitoring and safety equipment
Awareness of confined space entry procedures and permits
Understanding of emergency and rescue planning requirements
This course supports confined space awareness by providing clear guidance on regulatory requirements and inspection expectations.
This course provides a Record of Training (ROT) confirming that the participant has completed Confined Space Awareness training aligned with Ontario Regulation 632/05.
While this is not a government issued certification, the Record of Training is commonly used by employers to document that workers and supervisors have received formal awareness training related to confined space hazards and entry requirements.
Training records support employer documentation and may be requested during inspections or compliance reviews.
Confined space work carries a high level of risk and is closely reviewed by regulators due to the potential for serious injury or fatality.
