Confined Space Entry

Construction work may require you to enter permit-required confined spaces, also known as permit spaces, a specific type of confined space that can present fatal hazards. Examples of confined areas that OSHA may classify as permit spaces include tanks, sewers, storm drains, boilers and HVAC ducts.
