Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.146(c)(2): If the workplace contains permit spaces, the employer shall inform exposed employees, by posting danger signs or by any other equally effective means, of the existence and location of and the danger posed by the permit spaces. NOTE: A sign reading DANGER -- PERMIT-REQUIRED CONFINED SPACE, DO NOT ENTER or using other similar language would satisfy the requirement for a sign. The powder coat dip tank, assessed by Schneider Electric as a permit-required confined space based, had signage on the dip tank as a non-permit required confined space, and exposed employees to an engulfment hazard and allowing employees to enter tank without any restrictions.
