Federal and NV State OSHA confined space entry standards for general industry (1910.146) and construction (1926 Subpart AA) require privately-owned businesses, non-profit organizations, and affected governmental organizations in Nevada to implement a comprehensive confined space entry program for their employees who are involved in confined space entry work. A key element of that program is providing confined space training for all affected workers involved in confined space work. This includes all confined space entrants, attendants, and entry supervisors at general industry and construction work sites with permit-required confined spaces, as well as the competent person at construction sites.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Who regulates confined space entry requirements for employers in Nevada?
Nevada operates an OSHA-approved State Plan covering most private sector workers and all state and local government workers. Federal and Nevada State OSHA confined space entry standards for general industry (29 CFR 1910.146) and construction (29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA) require privately-owned businesses, non-profit organizations, and affected governmental organizations in Nevada to implement a comprehensive confined space entry program. This includes providing confined space training for all affected workers involved in confined space work.
What roles does confined space training cover?
Our training covers all required confined space entry team roles. This includes entrants who enter the space, attendants who monitor from outside, and entry supervisors who oversee operations. For construction sites, we also train the competent person who identifies confined spaces and determines which are permit-required. Each role has specific duties, so the training addresses the responsibilities employees will actually perform.
When is additional confined space training required for construction work?
For construction work under 29 CFR 1926.1207, training is required before employees are first assigned duties, before there is a change in assigned duties, and whenever there is a change in permit space entry operations that presents a hazard about which an employee has not previously been trained. The training must establish proficiency in the duties required and introduce new or revised procedures as necessary for compliance.
