Closed/Restricted Area Safety Training Programs

Competence in International Standards for the World’s Most Risky Operations

Adaptation to Turkey by Combining OSHA, HSE, and DGUV Standards

Our Approach: Highest Global Standards, Zero Tolerance
At SWL, we operate in confined space safety not based on “local customs,” but guided by science and international experience. The foundation of our training methodology is built on the most stringent and respected standards worldwide:

  • OSHA 29 CFR 1910.146 (USA): Global industry standard for entry into confined spaces.
  • HSE Confined Spaces Regulations 1997 (United Kingdom): A basic guide for risk assessment and safe working systems.
  • DGUV Regulation 113-004 (Germany): Technical safety rules for work on structures such as industrial tanks and silos.
  • Occupational Safety and Health Law No. 6331 (Turkey): National legal requirements you are obligated to comply with.

SWL’s 4-Level Modular Training System

Instead of a single “one-size-fits-all” training program, we offer a 4-level competency program designed for different roles within your facility. This modular structure ensures the right person has the right competency and allows you to use your resources most efficiently.

Sectoral Depth: Our Experience in High-Risk Industries

We combine theoretical knowledge with practical experience gained in the most demanding industries. Our areas of expertise include:

  • Petrochemicals and Polymers: Reactor and Tank Operations

  • Oil and Gas: Platforms and refinery sites

  • Industrial Production: Silos, process equipment, and tanks

  • Food and Pharmaceuticals: Fermentation and storage tanks

  • Water and Waste Management: Treatment plant operations

  • Construction and Infrastructure: Tunnel, culvert, and canal works

Proven Results: The Value of Working with SWL
Our programs provide not just a certificate, but measurable and sustainable value for your business.

  • Proven Accident Reduction Potential: Businesses that fully implement our programs have seen accident reduction potential of up to 94%.

  • High Success and Competency Rate: We achieve a graduation and field competency rate of over 96% among participants.

  • International Validity: The certifications we offer are recognized and accepted in your global operations and international audits.
