A confined space is defined as a work area which has all of the following characteristics: sufficient space for a person to fit within and perform work, limited means of entry and exit, and a design that was not intended for continuous worker occupancy. This course will provide general awareness on confined spaces, describe a permit-required confined space, and describe the job roles and responsibilities involved in confined space entry.

The following key questions are answered in this module:
What is a confined space? A hazardous confined space is defined as a work area which has all of the following characteristics: sufficient space for a person to fit within and perform work, limited means of entry and exit, and a design that was not intended for continuous worker occupancy.
What are examples of confined spaces? Some spaces are clearly "confined," such as storage tanks, digesters, reactors, or large process pipes which can be opened for access during a shutdown. Confined spaces may also include common areas such as pipe trenches, pits, or rooms where normal exits may be blocked by construction work.
What are the hazards of working in a confined space? Working in a confined space can represent a "triple threat" of hazards to employees. First, workers run the risk of exposure to a range of hazardous atmospheres when entering a confined space. Second, the space can present physical dangers due to cramped working space, proximity to moving equipment, poor walking surfaces, and the possibility of engulfment. Finally, the nature of confined spaces makes rescue of someone needing assistance within the space much more difficult.
What is a permit-required confined space? In addition to matching all the characteristics of a confined-space, a permit-requried confined space contains or has a potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere, contains a material that has the potential for engulfing an entrant, has an internal configuration such that an entrant could be trapped or asphyxiated by inwardly converging walls or by a floor which slopes downward and tapers to a smaller cross-section, or contains any other recognized serious safety or health hazard.
What types of hazards do confined spaces present? Hazards associated with confined spaces include hazardous atmospheres, physical hazards, and entrance/exit hazads.
