Confined Space Work

Confined Space Work - 제한된 공간에서 이루어지는 작업을 의미하고, 밀폐공간작업이 지칭합니다.

Confined Space Work의 가장 위힘한 점은 사고 발생시 일반재해로 연결보다는 중대재해로 연결되는 사고가 많은 점 입니다. 또한 사고를 발견한 사람(최초 목격자)이 급한 마음으로 구조 활동을 할 경우에 산소 결핍 또는 화학물질 흡입 등으로 동일한 재해를 얻을 수 있다는 점입니다.

 

밀폐공간작업을 수행해야 한다면 주변에 많이 알리세요. 관리감독자/근로자 등 누구나 이곳에서 밀폐공간작업이 이루어지고 있구나 인식할 수 있도록 해야합니다. 

 

밀폐공간작업 특성상, 식별이 용이하지 않고, 내부에 무슨일이 어떻게 이뤄지는지 외부에서는 확인이 어렵습니다.
