Confined Spaces: The Simpler, The Deadlier

Across the U.S. there seems to be an endless variety of confined spaces; some complicated, others quite simple. When it comes to ensuring the safety of entrants, it seems that the simpler the space, the greater the danger.

This is a topic we stress in our Confined Space Train the Trainer courses. When you are dealing with pits and vaults, they can seem quite innocent compared with process vessels or boilers. Clearly, no one is going to try to go into a boiler (or fuel tank or process vessel) when it is operating, but a pit or vault? You can often see the bottom and it looks so accessible. If you accidentally dropped a tool or your phone into it, what's the problem with just jumping in to grab it?
