Gas testing helps identify atmospheric hazards before and during work in places such as confined spaces and hazardous areas. Reliable tests support decisions about whether work can proceed and what controls are needed. Learners will practise the basic steps for using gas detection equipment, taking representative samples and interpreting readings. They will also learn how to report results and act when readings or conditions change.
