What is "confined space"?
Limited space refers to the space that is closed or partially enclosed, relatively isolated from the outside world, with narrow entrances and exits, poor natural ventilation, and easy to cause the accumulation of toxic, harmful, flammable and explosive substances or insufficient oxygen content. It seems to be "mediocre in appearance", but it is an "invisible killer", and blind rescue often leads to increased casualties.
Work in confined spaces
It is dangerous
When the construction personnel enter the confined space to work
Always be cautious
