Confined Space Entry for Construction - Video Kit

Construction sites often include confined spaces—pits, manholes, vaults, tanks—that aren’t designed for continuous occupancy and can be hard to exit in an emergency. This course explains OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA requirements so crews can recognize hazards, follow permit procedures, and coordinate safe entries with the right roles, testing, ventilation, and rescue planning. Employers must add site-specific procedures and any required hands-on practice.
