A one-day, in-company course on the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations: what DSEAR requires, how to classify hazardous-area zones, and the actions to take for compliance.
DSEAR training explains the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002: the dangerous substances they cover, the employer duties, and how to classify the hazardous-area zones where a flammable or explosive atmosphere could form. KeyOstas delivers it as a one-day in-company course with practical exercises.
It is for the people who manage workplaces where flammable or explosive atmospheres can form.
By the end of the day, every delegate will be able to do the following.
State what the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 require of an employer.
Identify the dangerous substances DSEAR covers, including flammable liquids, gases, vapours and dusts.
Outline the duties to assess, eliminate or reduce, and control the risk from explosive atmospheres.
State the definitions of the hazardous-area zones used to classify explosive-atmosphere risk.
Identify and classify hazardous-area zones for flammable gases and vapours.
Identify and classify hazardous-area zones for combustible dusts.
Identify the zones around the storage of highly flammable liquids and LPG, in line with HSE guidance.
Identify equipment suitable for use within a classified hazardous-area zone.
One day, building from the regulations to hands-on zone classification.

A KeyOstas tutor delivers the day at your premises, and your own substances and areas can be used.
Delegates work through zone-identification exercises for vapours, dusts and flammable storage rather than sitting a written exam.
