       During the interview with the both safety engineers, both of them insisted that confined spaces are the most dangerous place in the workplace for many reasons. The confined place is the place where it is very hard for the person to enter and very hard to get out. The confined space has only one exit which makes it very difficult to rescue someone from there. In the confined space the ventilation and the circulation of the air is very weak so that if someone was inside the confined space and there was an oxygen deficiency the person will fall down and he won’t notice, he will pass-out. There is also the opportunity for the toxic gases to saddle down inside the confined space and it will stay there because of the poor ventilation. There are precautions for anyone who  enters the confined space below.

 

• Inform your supervisor about the job

• You should not be alone

• Bring your breathing apparatus with you

• Do gas testing before your enter (check Oxygen to be minimum maximum 21% and minimum 19%)

• Bring with you fans to circulate the air
