Confined Spaces
This program establishes the framework to protect individuals from the hazards associated with entering and performing work in confined spaces through evaluations, training, safe work practices, and permitting. Entering confined spaces must be avoided when feasible and should only be considered after reasonable efforts are made to avoid entry such as reconfiguring or relocating equipment, using cameras for inspections, utilizing extension tools to operate equipment, or changing the characteristics of the space so that it’s no longer classified as a confined space.
