CONFINED SPACES: A Refresher for Life! OSHA CONFINED SPACE VESSEL ENTRY TRAINING - Full Module

Описание: This video provides basic refresher training on the characteristics and hazards of OSHA defined CONFINED SPACE VESSEL ENTRY as found in many industrial operations. Victim rescue guidelines are also covered. Always check your local regulations and laws for the most up to date requirements related to vessel entry.

Many workplaces contain areas that are considered "confined spaces" because while they are not necessarily designed for people, they are large enough for workers to enter and perform certain jobs. A confined space also has limited or restricted means for entry or exit and is not designed for continuous occupancy. Confined spaces include, but are not limited to, tanks, vessels, silos, storage bins, hoppers, vaults, pits, manholes, tunnels, equipment housings, ductwork, pipelines, etc.

OSHA uses the term "permit-required confined space" (permit space) to describe a confined space that has one or more of the following characteristics: contains or has the potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere; contains material that has the potential to engulf an entrant; has walls that converge inward or floors that slope downward and taper into a smaller area which could trap or asphyxiate an entrant; or contains any other recognized safety or health hazard, such as unguarded machinery, exposed live wires, or heat stress.
