Many companies find that they have equipment or processes that require their personnel to enter confined spaces.  

​

OSHA 29 CFR 1910.146 defines confined space as any space that has limited or restricted means of entry, is not designed for continuous occupancy, and is large enough and configured so that a person can enter the space and maneuver well enough to perform tasks.  

​

OSHA further documents in 29 CFR 1926.21 that there is an affirmative duty on an employer to train employees who enter confined or enclosed spaces.  

​

OSHA’s 29 CFR 1910.146 states that if your personnel are entering permit-required confined spaces, the employer must provide a competent rescue team to provide emergency rescue capability within a timely manner. If your facility is conducting permit entry work and you don’t have your own rescue team or you need additional personnel for your entry, Your SAFE can provide you with trained and fully equipped standby teams to perform any standby rescue capability your company may need.
