Explosion safety

WHY ATEX TRAININGS?

Training personnel working in hazardous areas with potentially explosive atmospheres is important. On the one hand, proper training provides employees with the knowledge and skills needed to perform work safely. On the other hand it helps meet requirements laid out in performance-based regulations placing a general duty on employers and managers to ensure the safety of their employees.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ATEX

This basic knowledge training is developed for persons who occasionally enter or work in ATEX hazardous environments, such as operators, truck drivers, painters, cleaners, etc. This training is not adapted for personnel expected to work on Ex certified equipment.
