ABSTRACT

Note: Great care and caution should be exercised before anyone signs certification stating that a particular confined space is not hazardous (for any reason). Remember, the person who signs such a document is responsible, and therefore liable, for his or her decision. • I f hazards arise within a permit space that has been declassified to

a non-permit space, each employee in the space must exit the space. The employee must then reevaluate the space and deter­ mine whether it must be reclassified as a permit space.
