Use this checklist before entering a confined space. Start by filling out general information about the confined space, its type, how often it is used, and the work to be performed inside. List down names of the people involved in the work and classify if it is permit-required or not. Next check if the area is free from hazards and ensure that the atmosphere is tested carefully. Evaluate if the workers are competent and trained to perform the job and if proper protective equipment (safety harness and lifelines) are worn properly. Lastly, ensure that permits are posted in the entrance of the confined space and show the names of the persons qualified to perform the job. Complete the audit by citing any safety recommendations.
