Unsure what constitutes a Confined Space and what doesn't in your workplace?
MoL Confined Space Guidelines 632/05 - Confined Space Definition:
"Means a fully or partially enclosed space, a) that is not both designed and constructed for continuous human occupancy, and b) in which atmospheric hazards may occur because of its construction, location or contents or because of work that is done in it.
How do I know if I have a confined space in my workplace?
To determine whether you a "space" meets the definition of a confined space, consider the following 3 questions:
-
Is the space fully or partially enclosed?
-
Is the space NOT both designed and constructed for continuous human occupancy?
-
Might an atmospheric hazard occur?
The only way to determine if the "space" meets the definition for a "confined space" is to evaluate it!
We can assist you by providing you with a thorough evaluation by our professional and experienced staff as well as a written report within 7 days with our recommendations!
