Entering a confined space is not an everyday task, and without the proper entry protocols, workers can be exposed to unnecessary risk. One of the most important safety protocols for confined space operations is the use of entry permits. These permits ensure that all hazards have been assessed and mitigated before anyone enters the space.

What Does a Confined Space Entry Permit Cover?

  • Pre-Entry Hazard Assessment: Every permit should include a thorough review of potential hazards inside the confined space, including toxic gases, poor ventilation, or physical obstructions.

  • Authorized Personnel Only: The permit should clearly list who is allowed to enter the space and what their responsibilities are during the entry operation.

  • Monitoring Equipment: Details on the necessary atmospheric testing and monitoring equipment should be outlined, ensuring the space is safe for entry.

  • Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Entry permits should list the required PPE for all workers entering the confined space.

Why Entry Permits Are Non-Negotiable:

  • Accountability: Entry permits hold supervisors, rescue teams, and workers accountable, ensuring no one skips critical safety steps.

  • Continuous Monitoring: Regular checks through the entry process ensure that any changes in the confined space environment are immediately addressed.

  • Record-Keeping: Maintaining detailed logs of entry permits allows companies to review incidents and improve safety protocols over time.
