Confined Space Assessment

Confined Space Assessment

  • Space has previously been designated as a Confined Space? ---If in Doubt select NO---

  • Is the Space NOT designed for continual Worker occupancy?

  • The Confined Space assessment indicates that the space is NOT a Confined space, work may proceed without a confined space permit provided the following requirements are met
    Approval from line supervisor who has the appropriate knowledge of the space.

  • Is the space designed or intended to be at normal atmospheric pressure while any person is in the space?

  • The Confined Space assessment indicates that the space is NOT a Confined space, work may proceed without a confined space permit provided the following requirements are met
    Approval from line supervisor who has the appropriate knowledge of the space.

  • Is the Space - Enclosed or Partially Enclosed?

  • The Confined Space assessment indicates that the space is NOT a Confined space, work may proceed without a confined space permit provided the following requirements are met
    Approval from line supervisor who has the appropriate knowledge of the space.

  • AND within the Space is there a risk of one or more of the following? Select all that Apply

  • The Space has been assess as being a "Confined Space" and the remaining sections MUST be completed prior to any work commencing within the Confined Space.

  • The Confined Space assessment indicates that the space is NOT a Confined space, work may proceed without a confined space permit provided the following requirements are met
    Approval from line supervisor who has the appropriate knowledge of the space.
