Project Spotlight

Hygieneering was recently entrusted by several of our clients to develop comprehensive confined space entry and rescue procedures tailored to the unique needs of their facilities. These meticulously crafted procedures address critical aspects of confined space safety, including identifying specific hazards within the space, implementing measures to eliminate or control those hazards, testing and monitoring atmospheric conditions, establishing clear criteria for evacuation during entry, and outlining effective rescue protocols for emergency situations.


Confined spaces pose significant risks that can result in severe injury or even fatalities if not properly managed. Common hazards include oxygen deficiency, toxic atmospheres, fire or explosion risks, engulfment, fall hazards, extreme temperatures, and more. By providing detailed written procedures for confined space entry, we help ensure that workers understand how to mitigate these dangers and safely carry out their tasks. Additionally, incorporating robust rescue protocols ensures a swift and effective response in the event of an emergency, safeguarding the well-being of personnel and enhancing overall workplace safety.
