Sector-Specific Risks Courses:
confined spaces, working at height training
Discover specific risks training: courses on confined spaces, working at height, chemical, electrical, noise, vibration risks according to sector regulations.
Compare personalized proposals from the best certified providers.
What are Specific Risks and why training is essential
Specific risk training is mandatory according to sector regulations (DPR 177/2011 confined spaces, Legislative Decree 81/08 specific titles) and company risk assessment.
Workers trained on specific risks recognize hazards, apply safe procedures and prevent serious accidents in high-risk environments.
Who Specific Risks Training is for
• Confined Space Workers who must operate in suspected contaminated environments (DPR 177/2011)
• Working at Height Personnel who work above 2 meters with fall risk (scaffolding, ropes, fall protection PPE)
• Workers exposed to Chemical, Electrical, Noise, Vibration Risks according to risk assessment
• Construction, industry, maintenance sector companies with specific risks documented in DVR
Concrete benefits of Specific Risks Training
Prevention of serious and fatal accidents
Reduce serious accidents in confined spaces, falls from height, exposure to chemical/physical agents with workers trained on specific safe procedures.
Sector regulatory compliance
Comply with DPR 177/2011 obligations (confined spaces), Legislative Decree 81/08 specific titles, avoid sanctions and demonstrate adequate training for documented risks.
Operational skills and risk management
Workers acquire operational skills on specific PPE, emergency procedures, hazard recognition and high sector risk management.
Available formats for Specific Risks Training
In compliance with the 2025 State–Regions Agreement: practical training is mandatory in-person (confined spaces, work at height, fall-arrest PPE); online theory only for permitted modules and some refreshers; blended with online theory + classroom practice.
In-Person Courses
- Confined spaces, working at height with practical fall protection PPE tests, harnesses, ropes, evacuation
- Chemical, electrical, noise, vibration risks with detection, protection, procedure exercises
- Confined space intervention simulations, suspected environments, sector specific risk emergencies
- Ideal for initial training and updates with mandatory practice on real equipment
Online (theory/refreshers only where allowed)
- Only theory and some refreshers allowed online; practical sessions always in-person
- No online practice for confined spaces, work at height or fall-arrest PPE (Category III)
- Certified platform for theory modules on sector regulations and procedures
- Use online for permitted theory/refreshers; verify 2025 Agreement requirements
Blended Courses
- Online theory (regulations, risks, procedures) + in-person practice (PPE, simulations) compliant with regulations
- Optimize time with flexible online modules and mandatory practical tests in equipped classroom
- Confined spaces, fall protection PPE, gas detectors exercises, emergency procedures with qualified instructors
- Combines online efficiency and practical quality for complete sector specific risk training
Frequently asked questions about Specific Risks courses
What are specific risks?
Specific risks are hazards typical of sectors or tasks: confined spaces (DPR 177/2011), working at height, chemical, electrical, noise, vibration risks. Training is mandatory according to regulations and company risk assessment (DVR).
Who is specific risks training for?
It's mandatory for workers exposed to specific risks documented in DVR: confined space operators, working at height personnel, exposed to hazardous chemical/physical agents, electrical installation maintenance, construction, industry.
What courses does specific risks training include?
It includes: confined spaces (DPR 177/2011), working at height and fall protection PPE, chemical risk, electrical risk PES-PAV, noise, vibrations, suspected contaminated environments, emergency procedures and practical tests.
Difference between general training and specific risks?
General training (4 hours) covers basic safety concepts. Specific risk training (variable) deepens sector hazards (confined spaces, working at height, chemical) with specific regulations and mandatory practical tests.
