    consideration of:
    • The task
    • The working environment
    • Working materials and tools
    • The suitability of those carrying out the task
    • Arrangement for emergency rescue.

    isolation is effective .
    • It may be necessary to clean the confined space prior to
    entry to ensure fumes do not develop from any residues
    whilst the work is being done .
    • Work ship should be broken at intervals by rest periods that
    employee should spend in fresh air.
    • Employees should also be made aware of the need to
    vacate the confined space at the expiry time limit stated on
    the permit to work.
     Emergencies and rescue procedures :
    • The procedure to follow in an emergency situation
    should be clearly defined prior to the outset of the
    operation with specific job allocated to specific person.
    The emergency procedure that are to be followed
    should be clearly indicated in the permit to work.
    • The provision of or immediate access to a trained first
    aider should also be a priority considerations whilst this
    work activity is being undertaken.
    • An adequate communication between people inside and
    outside the confined space and to summon help in an
    emergency. This will be by site radios.
