Working at Height and Confined Space Training

Our training programs aim to ensure that employees working at height and in confined space operations perform their duties safely, consciously, and in good health. Our programs are specifically planned in line with the field of activity, site conditions, and needs of the requesting companies.

Depending on the nature of the work, the training sessions are conducted either at the Yüksek İşler (High Works) Training Facility or at company sites that are verified to meet the required conditions.

Within the scope of the program, participants receive comprehensive training on both fundamental and practical subjects such as;

  • Occupational Health and Safety Law No. 6331,
