Some of the deadliest hazards we can face are the conditions that exist inside confined spaces such as manholes, tanks
and similar areas. Controlling access to confined spaces and the hazards they contain can prevent injuries and save lives.
This program provides an overview of confined space entry operations and explains the safe work practices required by
California OSHA to protect workers from confined space dangers.
Topics include the confined space entry permit, atmospheric hazards, atmospheric testing and monitoring, other confined
space hazards and how they are controlled and the duties of the entry supervisor, the attendant and the entrants.
After watching the program, the participant will be able to explain the following:
- Which atmospheric hazards can be found in a confined space;
- How the atmospheres of confined spaces are tested and monitored;
- What other hazards can exist in a confined space and how they are controlled;
- What the duties are of the entry supervisor, the attendant and the entrants.
