Confined space training is crucial for the safety and well-being of workers operating in restricted areas. Each year, many workers suffer injuries or fatalities in confined spaces, with an estimated 60% of these fatalities occurring among "would-be" rescuers. This alarming statistic underscores the importance of proper confined space certification and training to prevent such incidents.

What Constitutes a Confined Space?

Confined spaces can be found across various industries and include areas such as:

• Silos, vats, hoppers, utility vaults
