Confined Spaces

 

A confined space is a place which is substantially enclosed, and where serious injury can occur from hazardous substances or conditions within the space or nearby (i.e. lack of oxygen). A confined space is any space that has limited or restricted means of entry or exit. Confined spaces are large enough for a person to enter to perform tasks i.e. a utility tunnel, the inside of a boiler, the inside of a fluid storage tank and a small underground electrical vault are all examples of a confined space.

The exact definition of a confined space varies depending on the type of industry. Confined spaces that present special hazards to workers, including risks of toxic or asphyxiant gas accumulation, fires, falls, flooding, and entrapment may be classified as permit-required confined spaces depending on the nature and severity of the hazard.
