Watch the recorded webinar “Introduction to Confined Space Hazards”
Cal/OSHA held this free webinar training as an introduction for California employers and others in order to 1) Define confined spaces in the workplace, 2) Identify hazards related to working in confined spaces, and 3) Provide detail on how to get more information on essential safeguards to prevent injuries and fatalities when working in confined spaces. Last year, seven occupational fatalities occurred in confined spaces. This public webinar was held as an integral part of a campaign to bring awareness to these hazards and address employer requirements. Confined space hazards occur in multiple industries and employers frequently are either not familiar with the risks of working in such spaces or fail to follow proper safeguards.
