Do you have spaces in your workplace that are fully or partially enclosed that aren’t designed or constructed for continuous human occupancy? Is it possible that a hazard may occur because of its construction, location, contents, or because of work that is done in it? If you answered yes, these are considered confined spaces and you may benefit from the help of an expert consultant.
