Confined Space Permit Program
Spaces that are ‘physically confining’ or ‘enclosed’ must be identified and evaluated by departments to determine if the space is regulated under OSHA’s standard for permit confined spaces. For OSHA Permit Required Confined Spaces, requirements include supervisory and employee responsibilities, training procedures, management of change, periodic reviews, and coordination of information with other parties needing access to the space.
This program consists of procedures to prevent injuries to workers who must work near, or enter, confined spaces that contain serious or life threatening hazards.
