Disposal of Waste



Employers have a responsibility to ensure adequate measures are taken to prevent injury to all those within (or affected by) their workplace. There is also an onus on employers to prevent property damage. Confined spaces present a special type of risk, especially where flammable or explosive atmospheres can potentially occur.

A recent USA study showed that 39% of deaths from entries into confined spaces were caused by attempts to rescue another person. This clearly demonstrates how improper management and control can lead to unacceptabally high incident of injury and loss of life.
