Confined Spaces

Employees must learn how to deal with all dangers associated with working in confined spaces.

Besides exploring why confined spaces are dangerous, the text stresses why somebody, fully trained in confined space work, must obtain a mandatory permit that only authorizes people, wearing appropriate protective equipment and following correct procedures, to enter confined spaces.

The topic includes stark examples of unexpected circumstances where workers were trapped in confined spaces and then offers monitoring and training practices to help ensure a worker’s safety.

Also a number of issues are included that should complement your company’s confined space hazard program.
