- Background and vision for the NFPA 350 document on confined spaces
- Ways NFPA 350 addresses confusion and gaps in existing standards, including:
- ASSE Z117.1 Safety Requirements for Confined Spaces,
- OSHA Permit Required Confined Space Standard 1910.146, and
- OSHA Confined Space in Construction 1926.1200 – 1926.1203
- Confined space confusion exists in:
- Permit required vs. confined spaces
- Terminology that “non-permit” spaces implies nothing needs to be done
- Reclassification and alternate procedures
