Confined spaces in the workplace pose a serious threat to the health and safety of those who enter them. Without proper safety measures employees may be trapped, asphyxiated, and ultimately killed by the hazards present in these spaces.

Employers are required to use OSHA’s Form 300 Log to document recordable injuries and illnesses. At the start of each new year, employers summarize this annual record onto OSHA’s Form 300A and post this summary in a visible place from February 1ST through April 30TH.

OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) addresses the classification and communication of the hazards and potential hazards of chemicals. It requires employers to provide information to their employees about the hazardous chemicals they are exposed to at their workplace as well as the protective measures against these hazards.
