Asbestos Inspections in Confined Spaces

In this episode Neil and Ian talk about asbestos inspections in confined spaces.

A confined space is a place which is substantially enclosed (though not always entirely), and where serious injury can occur from hazardous substances or conditions within the space or nearby (e.g. lack of oxygen).

Some examples of confined spaces include:

Boiler rooms, Ducts, Under Croft's, Silos, Basements / Cellars, Manholes, Tunnels.

The most important thing you should do is to assess the risks.

Example equipment you may need to enter confined spaces may include:

Rescue lifting Tripod, Escape BA kit (one piece hooded), Gas detection monitor, Radios, Lighting, Barriers, Coveralls, 3 person working team
