United Rentals announced the launch of its enhanced Confined Space Safety Training for Competent Persons Program on July 31, 2025. This updated course is designed to assist contractor and utility personnel in identifying confined space hazards and creating safer, compliant work environments. The program incorporates new content and learning formats to meet evolving jobsite needs.
The training program focuses on equipping competent persons, who are responsible for site safety, with the knowledge to properly evaluate confined spaces and oversee work activities. It covers critical aspects such as regulatory requirements, hazard monitoring, ventilation, pre-entry checklists, gas detection, rescue planning, and communication protocols on multi-employer worksites.
Delivered through United Academy®, the program meets OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA requirements and is available in various formats, including in-person, virtual instructor-led, and e-learning. This initiative reinforces United Rentals' commitment to fostering a safety-first culture and providing comprehensive confined space solutions.
