Confined spaces are significantly more hazardous than normal workplaces.
The hazards involved may not be unique to confined spaces, but are always
exacerbated by the enclosed nature of the confined space. The resulting
injuries are potentially fatal. A seemingly insignificant error or oversight while
working in a confined space can result in a tragic accident. Furthermore there
is a propensity for multiple casualties due to the insidious nature of the hazards.
