Working In Confined Spaces Safety Notes

Before Entering Confined Spaces Consider

• Are there any unusual or specific hazards associated with the confined space  work, such as other workers or working with heat (welding)?
• Are there any site occupancy restrictions and conditions, including access and egress, work schedules and emergency management arrangements, including emergency communication and evacuation plans?
• Prior to any work-taking place in the confined space, the space must be naturally ventilated for a minimum period of ten minutes. If satisfactory atmospheric levels are not obtained then forced ventilation must be used until satisfactory gas test results are achieved.
• Prior to any entry taking place, the atmosphere of the confined space must be tested to comply with the following.
      • Oxygen >19.5% by volume and <23.5% by volume
      • Flammable gas <5% by   volume
      • Hydrogen Sulphide <10 ppm • Carbon Monoxide <30 ppm
  
• Confined space signage and barricading is applied at the entry site prior to entering

While Working In Confined Spaces

• Maintain communication with other fellow workers and the stand-by person
• Alert the stand-by person of any hazards
• Understand the rescue and work procedures prior to entrance
• Exit the confined space quickly when required

When Developing a Confined Spaces Safety Program Consider:

• Advice on how to identify confined spaces.
• The identification and assessment of all potential hazards that may exist at the beginning of the work as well as those that may develop because of the work activities.
• A plan to eliminate or control all identified hazards.
• Training program for all the workers that will enter into the confined spaces.
• The establishment of an entry permit system for each entry into a confined space.
• Development of an emergency plan complete with training and equipment in case an unforeseen situation occurs.
• An emergency response system.
• Program review whenever there is a change in circumstances or at least annually, to identify program weaknesses and make any necessary changes to the program.
