Confined spaces pose significant risks for employees across various industries. Understanding the dangers associated with these areas is crucial for ensuring workplace safety. Employers have a legal responsibility to provide a safe environment, which includes comprehensive training on confined space entry and rescue procedures.
A confined space is defined as an area that is large enough for a person to enter, has limited means of entry or exit, and is not designed for continuous occupancy. Common risks include oxygen deficiency, toxic gas buildup, and fire hazards. Awareness of these dangers can prevent tragic incidents.
