An Overview of Confined Space Rescue Course Objectives

Transcription:

Manufacturing SS No. 4 Safety Standard Confined Space Purpose: These procedures were developed to protect employees from the serious hazards associated with.entering and working within confined spaces. The procedures establish a permit-required and non permit required confined space process to regulate entry into confined spaces and to ensure the safety of employees who enter to work in those confined spaces Objective: Each site will identify all confined spaces and ensure that these spaces are made safe for entry and work. Any person entering a confined space will be trained and follow the site procedures for safe entry and work in that confined space. Scope: The procedures define the necessary requirements to meet the intention of WorkSafeBC regulations and apply to all employees and contractors who require entry into confined spaces. Definition: To ensure compliance to WorkSafeBC Regulation Part 9 Confined Space Entry which states: An enclosed area that is large enough and so configured that an employee can bodily enter and has the following characteristics: (a) is enclosed or partially enclosed (b) is not designed or intended for continuous human occupancy (c) has limited or restricted means of entry or exit that may complicate the provision of first aid, evacuation, rescue or other emergency response service, and (d) Is large enough and so configured that a worker could enter to perform assigned work. Note: Must meet all of a-d to be classed as a Confined Space. i.e. To satisfy c above and not be restricted or limited with respect to rescue or emergency response would be a door with an opening of approx 30 wide by 60 high with the test being to accommodate rescuers carrying an injured worker on a basket stretcher through the opening. Confined Space 1 of 15 Effective Date: April 25/08

Responsibility: 1. Site Confined Space Administrator Each site must assign a site administrator. The Administrator is responsible for updating and implementing the site specific confined-space program and safe entry procedures. This will include the following: Implement and maintain the Site Confined Space Entry Program. Perform annual reviews to evaluate the conformance and adequacy of the confined space program. Ensure training is provided for all aspects of confined space entry as required. Provide assistance in hazard identification, equipment selection, and other technical support related to confined space entry. Maintain attendance record of training sessions. Maintain copies of completed permits as required by WorkSafeBC regulations. 2. Individual (Entrant) The employee is responsible for ensuring they are familiar with and follow the confined space entry procedures, lock-out procedures, and other safe entry procedures as applicable. 3. Standby Worker Requirements / Responsibilities Worksafe G9.34-1 General requirements for a stand-by person Issued August 1, 1999 Sections 9.34 to 9.36 of the OHS Regulation require that, whenever a worker enters a confined space, another worker or workers must be assigned as the standby person(s). The positioning and functions of the standby person differ, depending on whether the atmosphere in the confined space has been determined through the hazard assessment under section 9.9 to be low, moderate or high. Depending on the rescue procedures, a stand-by person may also be trained and serve as a rescue person for the purpose of sections 9.37 to 9.41(3) of the OHS Regulation. In accordance with section 9.41(3), the standby person may not enter the space to effect rescue until at least one other worker is present and prepared to render assistance to the rescue worker. 4. Supervisor The supervisor is responsible for ensuring all standby attendants and employees entering the confined space are trained in these procedures and are conversant with rescue and emergency procedures. 5.Management Accountable to review the site specific confined space program and safe entry procedures annually with the OH&S Committee to ensure the objective is being met and ensure that all confined spaces are identified. (sample appendix 1 page 6) Confined Space 2 of 15 Effective Date: April 25/08

6.Contractors Contractors are required to follow the site specific confined space program or their own which ever is the higher standard. Management is responsible to: Apprise the contractor of all known hazards associated with the identified spaces they will be working in. Apprise the contractor of their responsibility to notify the supervisor of the employees in the area of precautions needed to ensure the safety of the employees working in the area. Debrief the contractor, at the conclusion of entry operations, on the procedures followed and any hazards confronted or created during entry. Training: Only personnel who are trained are allowed to enter a confined space, assist or work as a standby person. The training must include: o Hazard and hazard identification recognition of a confined space their hazards and controls o Entry equipment correct use of PPE and other entry equipment (tripod, hoist, ventilator etc..) o Air quality monitors and monitor procedures o Safe entry procedures and communication protocol o Emergency procedures Confined Space education and awareness training modules are located in the WFP Safety Web site link to Eclipse Training - http://intranet/intrac/default.asp Procedures: Only trained employees are permitted to enter low hazard confined spaces. NO employees are permitted to enter moderate or high hazard confined spaces All Confined Space Entry will be performed as defined by a site confined space hazard evaluation (appendix 3 page 8) and corresponding safe entry procedures (Sample - Appendix 4 page 9) 1. Confined Space Signage Procedure Confined Space Signage must be in place: a) DANGER CONFINED SPACE AREA PERMIT REQUIRED AREA DO NOT ENTER UNLESS AUTHORIZED AND TRAINED (Appendix 2 page 7). b) DANGER CONFINED SPACE AREA NON-PERMIT REQUIRED DO NOT ENTER UNLESS AUTHORIZED AND TRAINED (Appendix 2 page 7). c) DANGER CONFINED SPACE AREA NO EMPLOYEE ENTRY (Appendix 2 page 7) 2. Area Access Procedure No one will enter a confined space in which a harmful atmosphere may exist or develop until tests have been conducted to determine the nature of the environment. Tests must include oxygen content, Lower Explosive Limit and testing for applicable gases. All safe work and lock-out procedures outlined on the Confined Space Safe Entry Procedures must be followed before and during entry. Confined Space 3 of 15 Effective Date: April 25/08

No one will enter a confined space in which a danger of entrapment or engulfment may exist or develop until Confined Space Safe Entry Procedures are in place. 3. Permit Procedure A confined space permit must be completed and signed by the assigning supervisor before a worker enters a permit required confined space. 4. Safe Entry Procedures All applicable safe work and lockout procedures must be completed in full by qualified employees. The supervisor and/or employee must ensure the lockout procedure is completed and other potential hazards are addressed. These may include (as per safe entry procedures): Secure mechanical equipment and drain any residual pressure. Check for overhead hazards (chip build-up or bridging, corrosion, etc.) Test for applicable gases, oxygen and LEL If cutting/ welding equipment is in use and to be left unattended, cylinders must be turned off and bled. 5. Confined Space Pre-Entry / Entry Requirements a) Gas Testing Required: Gas testing must be performed as per WorkSafeBC confined space regulations and Confined Space Safe Entry Procedures. All such tests must reflect applicable gases which may be present and include oxygen content and Lower Explosive Limit results. If applicable, gas test readings must be recorded as per the Confined Space Safe Entry Procedures on the Confined Space Entry Permit. If the monitor alarm goes off, employees are to leave the area immediately. Gas testing is not required under the following Worksafe guideline if: - prior representative sampling has demonstrated that the atmosphere within the space or group of similar spaces meets the low hazard atmosphere definition and the written entry procedures do not require such testing. - A list of where the document is located that verifies 30 day test period completed with documented supportive test results. This document should explain when testing was done what it was done on and who was the qualified person that did the testing. b) Actions to correct unsafe conditions identified in testing: If tests determine unsafe conditions, the source of the condition must be determined and corrected. The confined space must be ventilated, cleaned or both and retested to ensure all harmful contaminants are below allowable concentrations. If unable to control air quality a 3 rd party will be used to achieve an acceptable air quality standard. c) Ventilation Procedures: Confined Space 4 of 15 Effective Date: April 25/08

Air quality must be maintained to ensure air contaminants are below allowable concentrations. Testing by qualified personnel will determine air quality. Mechanical ventilation may be required to supplement natural ventilation. d) Rescue Procedures - Only trained persons are to perform confined space rescue as outlined in confined space regulation 9.37 9.45 Rescue (Appendix 5 page 11). - If an outside agency (fire hall, search and rescue etc ) is identified as being used for confined space rescue then a written agreement must be on file stating who will be used and what procedures are in place for recue coverage. e) Lockout Requirements Lockout is required based on the specific job. Lockout will be indentified in the safe entry procedure for the identified confined space and is required for all people entering that confined space Appendices: 1.

(2) The responsible supervisor or the standby person must notify rescue personnel when all workers have completed their work and exited from the space. (3) If more than one confined space is to be entered at the same time, notification of rescue personnel to be on alert status at the commencement of work is adequate. (4) Notification requirements in this section do not apply if the written agreement indicates that rescue personnel are available 24 hours each day. Confined Space 11 of 15 Effective Date: April 25/08

Rescue Cont d 9.40 Summoning rescue The employer must ensure that rescue personnel monitor any signalling system that will be used to summon the rescue persons in the event of an emergency whenever they have been informed by the responsible supervisor or the standby person that a confined space entry is in progress. 9.41 Rescue procedures (1) Rescue or evacuation from a confined space must be directed by a supervisor who is adequately trained in such procedures or a qualified rescue person. (2) Effective voice communication must be maintained at all times between workers engaged in the rescue or evacuation and the person directing the rescue. (3) A rescue worker must not enter a confined space unless there is at least one additional worker located outside to render assistance. (4) A self-contained breathing apparatus, or air supplied respirator with escape bottle, must be used during rescue operations in an unknown or IDLH atmosphere. Note: Rescue procedures must apply every possible effort to eliminate, control or reduce the risk to emergency personnel responding to emergency situations including the use of mechanical ventilation. * records of training and practice drills must be maintained by the employer of the rescue persons. Lockout Worksafe 9.17 Lockout Before a worker enters a confined space, any material conveyance equipment that transports material to or from the space must be free of material if the material could present a hazard. Worksafe Standby Person G9.34-1 General requirements for a stand-by person Issued August 1, 1999 Sections 9.34 to 9.36 of the OHS Regulation require that, whenever a worker enters a confined space, another worker or workers must be assigned as the standby person(s). The positioning and functions of the standby person differ, depending on whether the atmosphere in the confined space has been determined through the hazard assessment under section 9.9 to be low, moderate or high. Depending on the rescue procedures, a stand-by person may also be trained and serve as a rescue person for the purpose of sections 9.37 to 9.41(3) of the OHS Regulation. In accordance with section 9.41(3), the standby person may not enter the space to effect rescue until at least one other worker is present and prepared to render assistance to the rescue worker. Confined Space 12 of 15 Effective Date: April 25/08

G9.34-2 Stand-by person for a low hazard atmosphere space Issued August 1, 1999 The requirement for low hazard atmosphere confined spaces in section 9.34 allows the stand-by worker to effectively serve as a person-check for a worker working alone in the space. The standby person does not have to be located at or near the entrance to the space if there is a "continuous means of summoning the standby person". However, the standby person cannot be located inside the confined space. The stand-by person must check on the well being of the worker inside the confined space every 20 minutes or more frequently if required by the entry procedures. G9.35 Stand-by person for a moderate hazard atmosphere space Issued August 1, 1999 A moderate hazard atmosphere confined space requires a stand-by person to be located at or near the entrance. At least every 20 minutes, the standby must visually observe or otherwise check the well being of the workers in the space. The standby can have other duties if they do not interfere with the standby person remaining at or near the entrance to the space, or interfere with the checking of workers in the space. See also OSH Guideline G9.34-1. G9.36 Stand-by person for a high hazard atmosphere space Issued August 1, 1999 A high hazard atmosphere confined space requires the stand-by person to be stationed at the entrance to the space and dedicated to the task of monitoring the workers in the space. The standby worker cannot have other duties. See also OHS Guideline G9.34-1. 9.1 Definitions "adjacent piping" means a device such as a pipe, line, duct or conduit which is connected to a confined space or is so located as to allow a substance from within the device to enter the confined space; "blank" means a solid plate installed through the cross-section of a pipe, usually at a flanged connection; "blanking or blinding" means the absolute closure of adjacent piping, by fastening across its bore a solid plate or cap that completely covers the bore and that is capable of withstanding the maximum pressure of the adjacent piping; "blind" means a solid plate installed at the end of a pipe which has at that point been physically disconnected from a piping system; "clean respirable air" when used to describe the atmosphere inside a confined space, means an atmosphere which is equivalent to clean, outdoor air and which contains (a) about 20.9% oxygen by volume, (b) no measurable flammable gas or vapour as determined using a combustible gas measuring instrument, and (c) no air contaminant in concentrations exceeding either 10% of its applicable exposure limit in Part 5 (Chemical and Biological Substances) or an acceptable ambient air quality standard established by an authority having jurisdiction over environmental air standards, whichever is greater; "confined space", except as otherwise determined by the Board, means an area, other than an underground working, that (a) is enclosed or partially enclosed, Confined Space 13 of 15 Effective Date: April 25/08

(b) is not designed or intended for continuous human occupancy, (c) has limited or restricted means for entry or exit that may complicate the provision of first aid, evacuation, rescue or other emergency response service, and (d) is large enough and so configured that a worker could enter to perform assigned work; "disconnecting" means physically disconnecting adjacent piping from a confined space to prevent its contents from entering the space in the event of discharge; "double block and bleed" means the closure of adjacent piping by locking out a drain or vent in the open position in the line between 2 locked out valves in the closed position; "harmful substance" means a WHMIS controlled product, a substance referred to under section 5.48, or a substance which may have a harmful effect on a worker in a confined space; "high hazard atmosphere" means an atmosphere that may expose a worker to risk of death, incapacitation, injury, acute illness or otherwise impair the ability of the worker to escape unaided from a confined space, in the event of a failure of the ventilation system or respirator; "inerting" means intentionally flooding the atmosphere inside a confined space with an inert gas such as nitrogen to eliminate the hazard of ignition of flammable vapours inside the confined space but thereby creating an oxygen deficient atmosphere; "low hazard atmosphere" means an atmosphere which is shown by pre-entry testing or otherwise known to contain clean respirable air immediately prior to entry to a confined space and which is not likely to change during the work activity, as determined by a qualified person after consideration of the design, construction and use of the confined space, the work activities to be performed, and all engineering controls required by this Regulation; "moderate hazard atmosphere" means an atmosphere that is not clean respirable air but is not likely to impair the ability of the worker to escape unaided from a confined space, in the event of a failure of the ventilation system or respirator.
