confined space  Presence of an engulfing agent
 Presence of an asphyxiating internal
configuration
 Presence of any other recognised
hazard that may effect a person's
health & safety

 Establish the Confined space as NON
PERMIT REQUIRED CONFINED
SPACE through physical verification,
hazard analysis and circle of safety If
not,
(A) The confined space to be
established as a NON PERMIT
REQUIRED CONFINED SPACE
through hazard elimination
programme and depending upon the
hazard elimination system it may be
further classified as (a) Reclassified
confined space OR (b) Alternate entry
confined space.
(B) The entry cannot be permitted
unless the presence of TRAINED
RESCUER and other protocol.
 Ensure that the toxic gases are not in
the inside area. Use a multi gas
detector.

 Heat /Temperature difference  Natural Ventilations are provided by

opening all the available outlets.

 The level of Oxygen will measured

by using a multi gas detector and
monitored at least every 1 hour.
