Frequently asked questions
What counts as a confined space in Ontario?
Under O. Reg. 632/05 a confined space is a fully or partially enclosed space that is not designed and constructed for continuous human occupancy, and in which atmospheric hazards may occur because of its construction, location, contents or the work carried out in it.
Is a rescue plan required before entering a confined space?
Yes. Ontario requires an adequate written rescue procedure to be in place, with rescue workers and equipment available, before any worker enters a confined space.
Who needs confined space training?
Everyone involved in the entry, including entrants, attendants stationed outside the space, entry supervisors, and those who prepare the written entry plan.
