Confined Space Entry Awareness
Confined Spaces | 15-20 min
Summary
Confined spaces claim an average of 90 lives each year in the United States, and tragically, many of these deaths are would-be rescuers who entered without proper equipment to save a fallen colleague. A confined space doesn't have to be small - it's any space with limited entry and exit, not designed for continuous occupancy, and large enough to enter and perform work.
