FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A confined space is an enclosed or partially enclosed area that can fit a person but is not designed for a person. Confined spaces often have limited entry and exit points which can be a hazard to personal safety. However, these places need to be accessed from time to time for repairs, maintenance and inspections. Since these spaces can be dangerous, training is essential to maintaining the health and safety of the workers assigned to work in them.
Some examples of confined spaces include but are not limited to the following:
Silos - including agricultural silos, grain bins, and other types of silos used for storage.
Boilers - including industrial boilers used for heating or power generation.
Sewers - including storm drains, sanitary sewers, and other types of underground piping systems.
Tunnels - including vehicular, pedestrian, and other types of tunnels that may contain hazardous materials or low oxygen levels.
Mines - including underground mines, quarries, and other types of mining operations.
Spaces on ships - including engine rooms, cargo holds, and other spaces on board vessels.
Vaults - including utility vaults, bank vaults, and other types of secure storage spaces.
Ductwork - including ventilation ducts and other types of enclosed air handling systems.
Pipelines - including oil and gas pipelines and other types of pipelines used
There are many jobs which require workers to enter confined spaces regularly.
They include jobs such as:
- HVAC technicians
- Vacuum truck & pump truck operators
- Oilfield labourers
- Construction workers
- Electricians
- Scaffolders
- Welders
However, many jobs may require confined space training that are not listed.
Working in confined spaces is dangerous because they are not built with human safety in mind as a regular room would be, but enclosed spaces also carry several risks because they are enclosed and often small. Some risks include:
- Risks from noxious fume
- Reduced oxygen levels
- Fire risks
- Flooding/drowning risks
- Asphyxiation risks
- Contamination risks
- Access difficulties during emergencies
