Example Confined Space Inventory and Classification Deliverable

Confined spaces within your facility must be identified and classified to ensure safe entry. During Brady Safety’s Confined Space
Inventory and Classification service, we collaborate with your team to identify your confined spaces on-site and evaluate the
hazards within the spaces.
With this information, we then properly classify these spaces as permit or non-permit required spaces and provide you with a
detailed confined space inventory and permit-required confined space hazard analysis.
