confined space entry
Confined space entry refers to the process of entering and working within areas that are not designed for continuous human occupancy, have limited entry or exit points, and may pose serious safety hazards. These spaces can include tanks, silos, manholes, pipelines, crawl spaces, and storage bins. Due to the potential presence of toxic gases, oxygen deficiency, engulfment risks, and limited ventilation, confined space work is considered high-risk and requires strict safety protocols.
