The hardest part of confined space work isn’t entering.
It’s resisting the urge to rush in when something goes wrong.
If a worker collapses inside a confined space, the safest decision is rarely the fastest one.
Follow the rescue plan. Alert emergency responders. Use the equipment you’ve been trained to use. Never become the next victim.Training isn’t about slowing you down. It’s about making sure everyone goes home.
Have you ever discussed rescue procedures during a toolbox talk? They deserve just as much attention as the entry itself.
