Confined Space Entry

The Confined Space Entry tile manages entry permits and attendant records for confined space work — ensuring every entry is authorized, documented, and linked to the correct personnel.

Key roles

Role	Responsibility
CSE Coordinator	Completes the assessment and authorizes the permit
Entrant	The worker entering the confined space
Attendant	Monitors from outside, maintains communication
Rescue Personnel	Assigned rescue team for the entry

Completing an entry permit

1. Open Specialty Safety → Confined Space Entry
2. Open the event for your work location
3. The CSE Coordinator completes the assessment:
   • Confirm the space is classified as a confined space
   • Record atmospheric readings (O₂ %, LEL %, H₂S ppm)
   • Document hazards and controls in place
   • Select the type of work activity
4. The system auto-classifies the entry type:
   • No CSE — not a confined space
   • Restricted CSE — limited hazards, entry permitted with controls
   • Confined CSE — significant hazards, full permit required
5. Assign entrant, attendant, and rescue personnel
6. Attach the rescue plan
7. Authorize the permit

During entry

• The attendant maintains continuous communication with entrants
• Atmospheric readings can be logged at intervals
• The permit remains Open until all entrants have exited

Closing a permit

1. All entrants exit and are accounted for
2. The CSE Coordinator closes the permit
3. The closed permit is archived with all records intact
