OSHA Releases New Regulation on Confined Spaces in Construction

May 28, 2015

In the beginning of May, OSHA announced rules for construction workers in confined spaces, which will take effect August 3, 2015.

The final rule includes crawl spaces, manholes, tanks, and sewers, and will require that confined spaces be large enough for an employee to enter and exit, and that the air must be tested before workers enter.
