FAQs

What is a Confined Space?

Many companies have spaces that are considered "confined" due to their layout. A confined space has restricted or limited ways of entry or departure, as well as a layout that can make first aid, rescue, evacuation, or other emergency response tasks problematic. They are not intended or suited for continual occupation.
