Confined Spaces Lack of Oxygen Personnel entering confined spaces will be
Working inside Flammable or toxic required to accomplished confined space
cistern tank atmosphere permit and should have confined space
Animals and training prior to entry.
Insects Contact the HSE office to determine
Heights and structures classified as confined spaces and
Ladders the appropriate procedures prior to entry.
Slipping and This includes contacting the confined space
Tripping coordinator and coordinating the confined

Safety shoes are required for all personnel
entering confined spaces to provide both
adequate foot wear with traction and to
protect the feet
Temperatures in confined spaces may vary
