[Virtual Presenter] Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this training video on Employee Engagement and HR. The focus of this video will be on confined space entry, specifically our program for confined space entry. The aim of this program is to protect our employees and contractors who enter and work in confined spaces by identifying, controlling, and permitting any hazards associated with these spaces. It also outlines the necessary steps and references for compliance and safety measures. Our confined space entry program is a crucial part of our overall safety management system, outlined in document HS-MF-G5-0001. This program has been revised and approved by Mike Cobbs on 02/14/2022 and is denoted with the title HS-MP-G5-0020, revision A, and a total of 23 pages. The purpose of this program is to ensure the safety of our employees and contractors who enter and work in confined spaces. This is achieved by eliminating or controlling any potential hazards. This program applies to all employees in all manufacturing areas. It is important to note that this program applies to all confined spaces on our company premises or worksites, which will be identified and classified as either permit-required or non-permit required. Steps will be outlined to eliminate or control any hazards in these spaces. Additionally, the program will specify the entry requirements for working in confined spaces on both company premises and customer premises or worksites. To ensure compliance and safety, this program references important documents such as HS-MF-G5-0001, our company safety management system, and Appendix A-E, which include a confined space evaluation form, confined space classifications, a monitoring equipment calibration log, a confined space entry permit, and a confined space entry permit log. In addition, references are made to our Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) program, Hearing Conservation Program, Fall Protection Program, and Hot Work Permit Program. Lastly, the program includes a section on definitions, including the acceptable entry condition, which refers to the conditions necessary for safe entry into a confined space. Please proceed to the next slide for further details..

Scene 2 (2m 39s)

[Audio] The second slide of our presentation outlines the key components of our confined space entry program. This program is designed to protect our employees and contractors who need to enter and work in confined spaces. The main objective is to identify, control, and permit any potential hazards in these spaces, and provide necessary steps and references for compliance and safety measures. The title of the program is Procedure #A, with a revision date of 02/14/2022, and has been approved by our Chief Safety Officer, Mr. Mike Cobbs. The second slide contains our procedure #HS-MP-G5-0020, on page 2 out of 23. We will now look at the definition of a confined space, which is an area large enough for an employee to enter and work, with limited means of entry or exit and not designed for continuous occupancy. This understanding is crucial to the requirements and guidelines of our program. The term "contractor(s)" refers to any individual, partnership, corporation, or entity that has a contract to work on our premises, including subcontractors. Our program is in compliance with our Company Safety Management System, outlined in document HS-MF-G5-0001, the Company Safety Management System Table of Contents. "EHS Representative" is a general term used to identify Environmental, Health, and Safety personnel in our facilities, operations, and job sites. "Emergency" refers to any event or occurrence that could endanger those entering confined spaces. The term "employee(s)" includes all employees, whether full-time, part-time, temporary agency personnel, or interns. This program applies to all of these individuals. "Engulfment" is an important term in the context of our confined space entry program, as it refers to a person being surrounded by a liquid or solid substance that can cause harm..

Scene 3 (4m 49s)

[Audio] In this document, we will be discussing important terms related to confined space entry. These include Hot Work Permit, IDLH, Inerting, Isolation, LFL, and Non-Permit Confined Space. The Hot Work Permit is a written authorization from the employer that allows operations that may create a source of ignition, such as welding or cutting. This permit is crucial in ensuring the safety of employees and contractors. IDLH stands for Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health and refers to any condition that poses a direct threat to life, causes irreversible health effects, or hinders the ability to escape from a permit-required confined space. Inerting is the process of replacing the atmosphere in a confined space with a non-combustible gas to make it nonflammable. It's important to note that this process can lead to an IDLH oxygen-deficient atmosphere. Isolation is the process of removing a space from service and protecting it from any potential release of energy or materials. This can be achieved by various means, such as blanking supply lines, locking out energy sources, and disconnecting mechanical linkages. LFL, also known as LEL, is the minimum concentration of a flammable gas or vapor in the air that can ignite with an ignition source. Finally, a Non-Permit Confined Space is a confined space that does not contain hazards that could cause death or serious harm. It is important to understand these terms and their significance in ensuring the safety of employees and contractors. This concludes our discussion on hot work permit, IDLH, inerting, isolation, LFL, and non-permit confined space. Thank you for watching..

Scene 4 (6m 43s)

[Audio] In this presentation on the Confined Space Entry Program, we will now focus on slide number 4, where we will discuss important aspects of the program. This includes the definitions and terms used throughout the document. Purging is the process of displacing gases, vapors, or other airborne contaminants from a confined space by injecting fresh air. This is typically done with a compressor or blower. Additionally, we have the Rescue Service, which consists of trained personnel responsible for rescuing employees in case of an emergency in a permit-required confined space. Another significant term is the Retrieval System, which is the equipment used for non-entry rescue in these spaces. This may include retrieval lines, harnesses, or lift devices. Throughout the document, we will encounter the terms "shall" and "should". "Shall" indicates mandatory procedures, while "should" is a recommendation. The Site Safety Coordinator is responsible for ensuring compliance and safety in the workplace, and may have various titles but shares the responsibility of protecting employees and contractors. The process of testing is used to identify and evaluate hazards in a permit-required confined space. Moving on to slide number 5, we will discuss the individual responsibilities of authorized entrants. This includes being aware of potential hazards, properly using equipment and following procedures, and communicating with the Attendant. In case of any issues or need for evacuation, the Attendant should be alerted. In summary, understanding and following the definitions and terms in the Confined Space Entry Program is crucial for the safety of our employees and contractors. Let's continue to the next slide for more information on individual responsibilities..

Scene 5 (8m 35s)

[Audio] Slide 5 out of 23 of our presentation on the Confined Space Entry Program covers the responsibilities of the Attendant during entry operations. The first responsibility is to maintain an accurate count of all Authorized Entrants inside the space and ensure they are authorized to enter. This is crucial for everyone's safety. The Attendant must also remain outside the permit space at all times during entry operations and communicate with Authorized Entrants about their status and any need to evacuate. If the Attendant is unable to perform their duties, they must order the evacuation of the space and may need to perform non-entry rescue procedures or call for emergency rescue services. To prevent unauthorized entry, the Attendant must take action when someone not authorized approaches or enters the permit space. It is important for the Attendant to focus solely on their duties and not perform any other tasks that could interfere with their responsibilities. This allows for effective monitoring and communication with Authorized Entrants, and the ability to respond to emergencies. Please continue to the next slide for more information on this important aspect of our Confined Space Entry Program..

Scene 6 (9m 48s)

[Audio] Slide number 6 out of 23 in our presentation discusses the administrative aspect of our Confined Space Entry Program. This program is crucial for the safety of our employees and contractors. Its aim is to identify, control, and permit any hazards associated with confined spaces. The program was last revised on 02/14/2022 and has been approved by our Site Safety Coordinator, Mike Cobbs. The responsibility for establishing and maintaining the program lies with our Site Safety Coordinator and EHS Representative. The next step in the program is to evaluate all potential confined spaces, both initially and periodically. The evaluations must be documented on a Confined Space Evaluation Form, and it is important to keep a current inventory of all confined spaces on our premises. Additionally, proper calibration of confined space monitoring devices is necessary for accuracy and effectiveness. Our Site Safety Coordinator is responsible for providing guidance to employees on the program's implementation and utilization. They are also in charge of reviewing and authorizing entry permits issued on our premises. To ensure compliance, an annual review of the program and space evaluations is required, with necessary updates being made at this time. Any cancelled permits must also be reviewed and maintained for at least one year. Moving on to the contractor aspect of the program, Training Coordinators are responsible for ensuring that all employees involved in confined space entry have received proper training. Training records should be kept and shared with the HR Department. Supervisors play a critical role in the implementation and enforcement of the program..

Scene 7 (11m 38s)

[Audio] This is slide 7 out of 23 in our Employee Engagement & HR Training Video. In earlier slides, we discussed the need for a Confined Space Entry Program to ensure the safety of our employees and contractors. Now, we will focus on the procedures and steps for compliance and safety within confined spaces. The first step is to assess potential confined spaces and their associated hazards using the Confined Space Evaluation Form or other required form. The Site Safety Coordinator or EHS Representative can assist with this process. It is necessary to keep a documented Confined Space Classification form and corresponding Evaluation Forms at the worksite to identify and control hazards. All employees, both from the company and contractors, must follow the procedures outlined in this program when entering and working in confined spaces to ensure their safety and comply with regulations. Only trained and authorized personnel are allowed to enter and work in these spaces, with written permission. Please note, if the customer or contractor has their own Confined Space Entry Program, we will follow their stricter guidelines. There are two categories of hazards in confined spaces: hazardous atmosphere and physical hazards. Lack of natural air movement in confined spaces can lead to an oxygen-deficient or flammable atmosphere. It is crucial for employees to be aware of and follow safety measures to prevent accidents or injuries. As we continue with this training video, remember the importance of proper procedures and precautions when working in confined spaces..

Scene 8 (13m 20s)

[Audio] We have now reached slide number 8 out of 23, where we will discuss the different types of atmospheres present in confined spaces and the necessary precautions to ensure the safety of our employees and contractors. Our main goal is to protect those who enter and work in confined spaces by identifying, controlling, and permitting any hazards. We will begin with the first type of atmosphere, which is an oxygen-deficient atmosphere. According to our procedure, any atmosphere with less than 19.5% oxygen cannot be entered without a Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) or a Supplied Air Respirator (SAR). It is important to note that an oxygen-enriched atmosphere, above 23.5% oxygen, can cause flammable materials to burn violently and in the event of a flammable atmosphere, entry must be delayed until proper ventilation has been carried out with natural air. It is crucial to mention that pure oxygen should never be used for ventilation. Moving on to the next category, flammable atmospheres have two main characteristics - an oxygen-enriched air and a flammable gas, vapor, or dust. Introducing an ignition source in such atmospheres can result in a dangerous explosion, therefore, it is imperative to never enter a flammable atmosphere and smoking should be strictly prohibited. In the case of using a non-combustible gas to eliminate a flammable atmosphere, the inerting process creates an IDLH (Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health) oxygen-deficient atmosphere, which requires employees to not enter without a SCBA or SAR. Lastly, toxic atmospheres which contain gases such as carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, chlorine, and ammonia can be harmful to the respiratory and nervous systems or cause asphyxiation. As per our procedure, toxic atmospheres should never be entered. In conclusion, all those involved in confined space entry must adhere to the safety measures and precautions outlined in our confined space entry program. We will now move on to the next slide..

Scene 9 (15m 41s)

[Audio] We will discuss the potential hazards in confined spaces during employee engagement and HR. These hazards include mechanical and electrical hazards, temperature hazards, and engulfment hazards. It is important to identify, control, and permit these hazards for the safety of workers. Mechanical and electrical hazards can occur from unexpected activation of equipment or release of gases, liquids, or fluids. To prevent them, the space must be properly isolated before entry, utilizing lockout/tagout, closing valves, or disconnecting pipes and lines. Temperature hazards, particularly extreme heat, can reduce worker efficiency and lead to heat-related illnesses. Staying hydrated and drinking water during entry can prevent this. Engulfment hazards can occur when working with loose materials in bins or hoppers, and special precautions must be taken for safety. In summary, it is crucial to understand and address these hazards. The confined space entry program aims to protect workers by identifying, controlling, and permitting these hazards. Compliance and worker safety can be ensured by following necessary steps and safety measures..

Scene 10 (17m 0s)

[Audio] Our presentation on the Confined Space Entry Program will now focus on communication and fall hazards. These are important considerations when entering a confined space, and our program has measures in place to address them. Let's first discuss communication. If an Entrant is wearing hearing protection, special procedures must be followed to maintain communication with the Attendant. This may include making visual or radio contact every 5-10 minutes or using a rope pull method. The main goal is to ensure constant communication between the Entrant and Attendant during the entry process. Next, we must address fall and falling object hazards. These can occur from potential fall hazards within the confined space or objects falling from topside entry openings. In order to address this, our Entrants are required to wear full body harnesses and lanyards when a fall hazard is present. For more detailed information on fall protection, please refer to our Fall Protection Program (HS-MP-G5-0018). Entrants are also required to wear hard hats to protect against falling objects. For specific guidelines on personal protective equipment, please see our Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Program (HS-MP-G5-0013). To prevent objects from falling into the confined space, we will also implement special precautions such as toe boards and barricading at the entry point. It is crucial for the safety of our employees that we properly identify all confined spaces in our company facilities. That is why we conduct a comprehensive audit to label all confined spaces. This ensures that our employees are fully aware of potential hazards and can handle them effectively. We will now continue with our presentation as we delve further into the Confined Space Entry Program..

Scene 11 (19m 0s)

[Audio] This slide discusses the classification and procedures for confined spaces in the company's worksites. The company maintains evaluation forms for these spaces, documenting any hazards and mitigation measures in place. Confined spaces are classified as either permit-required or non-permit, based on documented evaluations. For a complete list of company premises confined spaces and their classifications, HS-MF-G5-0023 can be referenced. The Site Safety Coordinator or EHS Representative is responsible for maintaining classifications for company premises, while worksites manage their own confined space classifications. If assistance is needed with documenting confined spaces, the Site Safety Coordinator or EHS Representative can be contacted. Non-permit confined spaces still require following applicable company safety programs and procedures, as they may still present potential hazards. When preparing for entry into these spaces, special care must be taken to consider any hazards introduced by the workers. Our priority is to protect our employees and contractors by identifying, controlling, and permitting confined space hazards. The next slide will cover necessary steps for compliance and safety measures..

Scene 12 (20m 20s)

[Audio] Slide number 12 will cover the monitoring devices used for entering confined spaces. These devices have both audible and visual alarms to ensure the safety of employees and contractors. The Site Safety Coordinator or other competent persons are responsible for maintaining these devices. Slide 6.3.2 outlines the calibration process for the monitoring devices, which should be done every 30 days using calibration gas by the Site Safety Coordinator or other competent persons. The calibration process must be recorded on the Confined Space Entry-Monitoring Equipment Calibration Log, found in document HS-MF-G5-0024 and kept with the instruments at all times. The monitoring devices used must also be marked on the entry permit. Prior to entering a permit-required confined space, the atmosphere must be monitored for oxygen content, flammable gases and vapors, and potential toxic air contaminants. This should be done just before employees enter while providing them with the opportunity to observe. Only trained personnel are allowed to use these monitoring devices and the pre-entry monitoring must be done throughout the space, including vertical spaces at various levels, to ensure the safety of all individuals entering. We hope you found this information useful and stay tuned for the remaining slides in our presentation on the Confined Space Entry Program..

Scene 13 (21m 50s)

[Audio] This is slide number 13 of our presentation on the Confined Space Entry Program. Our program aims to protect employees and contractors in confined spaces by identifying, controlling, and permitting hazards. We also provide compliance and safety measures. To ensure safety, continuous monitoring is incorporated using either Attendant Monitoring or Entrant Monitoring. The Attendant must document atmospheric levels every hour and certify them on the entry permit. Our company has a Confined Space Entry Permit for all entries. It can be found in document HS-MF-G5-0025. The permit is essential for all permit-required confined space entries on our company or customer premises. It serves as proof of safety measures for our employees and contractors. Thank you for joining us on slide 13. We will now continue with the rest of our presentation on the Confined Space Entry Program..

Scene 14 (22m 53s)

[Audio] Section 1 of the Confined Space Entry Program outlines the specific details that must be recorded in the entry permit to ensure the safety and compliance of employees and contractors. The time of day that the permit was authorized must be clearly stated using four digits, with the first two representing the hour and the last two representing the minutes. It must also indicate whether it was authorized for AM or PM. For example, if the permit was authorized at 8:11 AM, it should be recorded as 0811. Additionally, all necessary information must be documented in the permit to keep track of the confined spaces being entered and to ensure safety measures are followed. The required information for each section of the permit is outlined in a table. Section 1 focuses on the Confined Space Information, including the location and description of the space, as well as the purpose of the entry. The scheduled date and time for the entry must also be recorded, as well as the expiration date and time. It's important to note that the permit cannot be valid for longer than the time it takes to complete the task. If any problems arise during the entry, a new permit must be obtained. The maximum duration for a permit is 8 hours and it should expire at the end of the shift. If personnel changes occur, a new permit must be obtained..

Scene 15 (24m 17s)

[Audio] Slide number 15 discusses the potential hazards of confined spaces as outlined in our Confined Space Entry Program. The aim of this document is to protect our employees and contractors by identifying and controlling any potential hazards when they enter and work in confined spaces. Section 2 of the program focuses on potential hazards and provides a list that needs to be checked off as either "yes" or "no". Any additional hazards can be described in the "Others" section. To properly assess the hazards, it is recommended to refer to the completed Confined Space Evaluations. Moving on to section 3, we will now discuss the mandatory safety precautions that must be completed by the Entry Supervisor prior to entry. The Entry Supervisor must initial each of the three tasks once they have been completed. All attendees of the Pre-Entry Briefing must also print their name on the permit in section 3. Section 4 covers any additional permits that may be required for the work. If no other permits are needed, the "Not Applicable" box should be checked. Otherwise, the appropriate box should be checked and the permit/permit numbers, along with their expiration dates and times, should be listed. In section 5, the communication methods for both Entrants and Attendants are discussed. The appropriate box should be checked and any other methods should be explained. Section 6 addresses the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for Entrants during the entry operations. All applicable boxes should be checked and any other types of PPE being used must be explained. Lastly, section 7 outlines the requirements for communication and coordination between all personnel involved in the entry to ensure awareness of potential hazards and safety procedures on-site. Let's continue to the next slide as we discuss the necessary steps for emergency response and rescue in confined spaces..

Scene 16 (26m 18s)

[Audio] In conclusion, it is crucial to closely examine the key steps to maintain the safety of employees and contractors when entering confined spaces. Moving on to slide 16, we will now focus on performing the Bump/Zero Calibration, which is a vital part of ensuring the accuracy of atmospheric monitoring equipment. The person responsible for pre-entry atmospheric monitoring must document the date, time, and their initials for completing the Bump/Zero Calibration. In Section 9, the individual conducting the monitoring must also record the date and time, as well as the levels of all four categories at the bottom, middle, and top of the confined space. They must also sign and date the completion of the monitoring. Moving on to Section 10, the Entry Supervisor must verify that all required information in Sections 1-9 has been properly documented before authorizing the confined space entry work. This includes signing and printing their name and title, as well as dating and timing the permit. In cases where the permit is issued on company premises, the Site Safety Coordinator or EHS Representative must also confirm the completion of Sections 1-9 before authorizing the entry work. Once Sections 1-10 have been completed, the Entry Supervisor must display the permit at the entry point or its nearby location to inform all entrants that the entry work has been authorized. Additionally, it is essential to record the names of all authorized Attendants in Section 11, and no other individuals should be added unless previously listed. Our top priority is to ensure the safety of our employees and contractors during confined space entry. By carefully following the necessary steps and accurately documenting each stage, we can effectively protect and maintain the well-being of our workers..

Scene 17 (28m 20s)

[Audio] This document explains the confined space entry program, which aims to protect employees and contractors by identifying, controlling, and permitting hazards in confined spaces. Slide number 17, out of 23, discusses Section 13 which covers the cancellation of permits. The Entry Supervisor is responsible for signing, dating, and timing the cancellation of the permit. It is important for the same person to sign the cancellation as who authorized the entry in Section 10. Any required rescue must be documented in the "Comments" section, along with suggestions for improving the confined space entry procedures. Moving on, in section 6.4.3, Safety Personnel Notification (Company Premises), it is the Entry Supervisor's responsibility to inform the Site Safety Coordinator of all confined space entry permits issued on company premises. The Site Safety Coordinator must sign each permit before employees can enter the confined space. The Entry Supervisor must also record information on the Confined Space Entry Permit & Monitor Log, which should be kept near the confined space entry monitors. Next, in section 6.4.4, the permit must be posted at the entry point or nearby the confined space. This allows entrants to confirm that all necessary preparations have been completed. Lastly, in section 6.4.5, the Entry Supervisor is responsible for cancelling the permit once the entry is finished, using the same method as the initial sign-off. This concludes our discussion of Section 13 and we will now move on to the next section..

Scene 18 (30m 4s)

[Audio] This slide (18) of our presentation on Employee Engagement & HR focuses on the Permit-Required Confined Space Entry Procedures. It is an important aspect of our confined space entry program, which aims to protect employees and contractors entering and working in confined spaces. The program identifies, controls, and permits hazards, and outlines necessary steps and safety measures for compliance. The first step in the permit-required confined space entry procedure is a pre-entry briefing, led by the Entry Supervisor. This includes training on the specific space, tasks, hazards, control measures, duties, communication protocols, and rescue procedures. A Confined Space Evaluation Form will also be reviewed during this briefing. All individuals involved in the entry operation are required to attend this meeting and print their names on the permit under Section 3 for accountability and compliance. No one may be added to the permit as Entrants or Attendants in Section 11 without attending the pre-entry briefing. Before entering the space, precautions must be taken such as barricading the entry point to prevent fall hazards or falling objects, and isolating all power sources within the space. All air-monitoring equipment must also be tested and calibrated before entry, with any malfunctioning equipment being immediately addressed..

Scene 19 (31m 36s)

[Audio] On slide number 19 of our presentation, we will be discussing the operation and procedures for confined space entry. This is a crucial component of our overall confined space entry program, aimed at protecting our employees and contractors from potential hazards. Personal protective equipment, monitoring equipment, communication equipment, lighting, and necessary tools are essential for ensuring worker safety during entry operations. The Entry Supervisor is responsible for posting the completed entry permit at or near the entry point. In cases of hot work, a Hot Work Permit must also be completed and posted, following our Hot Work Permit Program. Approved ladders must be used and extend a minimum of 36 inches above the landing or ground level, while being placed securely and stably. Effective communication is critical throughout entry operations, using a combination of visual, verbal, or radio communication. Every 5-10 minutes, the attendant must check in with the entrant(s) through either verbal or visual communication. Continuous atmospheric monitoring is essential to ensure the air quality is safe for workers and to quickly respond to any changes. Please refer to the accompanying slides for further details and references on this important topic..

Scene 20 (32m 57s)

[Audio] As we near the end of our presentation, we will now cover rescue procedures for confined spaces. Our company has strict safety measures in place, including a rescue hierarchy. The first level is entrant self-rescue, where the entrant can exit the space on their own or with assistance from the attendant. If the entrant is unable to self-rescue, the next level is non-entry rescue using a retrieval system. In this case, the attendant must contact supervisor personnel to contact EMS. The attendant must follow our confined space entry program and administer first aid if necessary. We prioritize the safety and wellbeing of our employees and contractors, and this rescue hierarchy is just one of the measures we have in place. As we conclude our presentation, it is important to remember the key points of our confined space entry program. This program aims to protect employees and contractors by identifying, controlling, and permitting hazards in confined spaces. We hope that it will serve as a guide for all to comply with necessary safety measures. Thank you for your attention. We hope this training has been informative and valuable for all..

Scene 21 (34m 15s)

[Audio] Slide 21 explains the importance of documenting all rescue procedures in addition to the steps mentioned in previous slides. This documentation should be recorded in the comments section of the permit to keep a record of all rescue operations. The Entry Supervisor is responsible for canceling and re-evaluating the entry permit if personnel need to continue working or re-enter the confined space. When contractors are hired for permit-required confined space entry, there are specific protocols in place. Firstly, the contractor must be informed of the permit-required confined spaces in the workplace and that entry is only allowed through compliance with a program that meets the requirements of the OSHA Permit-Required Confined Spaces Standard - 1910.146. Secondly, the contractor must be informed of the hazards and previous experiences related to the space. This information can be shared through in-person briefings or written communication. These procedures ensure the safety of all individuals, whether they are our company's employees or contractors..

Scene 22 (35m 24s)

[Audio] Slide 22 of our presentation discusses the crucial aspect of training in our Confined Space Entry Program. This program is aimed at protecting our employees and contractors who are required to work in confined spaces. One of the essential steps in ensuring their safety is through proper training. Our company is responsible for providing training to all personnel involved in confined space entry, including Entrants, Attendants, and Entry Supervisors. This training equips them with the necessary understanding, knowledge, and skills to perform their duties safely. It is mandatory for all affected employees, including new employees and those whose assigned duties have changed. Additional training is required for employees if there are changes in permit space operations that pose new hazards. It is important to note that training must be provided whenever there is a deviation from the permit space entry procedures or if there are any inadequacies in the employee's knowledge. This ensures that all personnel are up to date with the latest information and procedures for safe entry into confined spaces. Our company also requires contractors to provide proof of training for their personnel who will be working in confined spaces on our premises. This ensures that everyone involved in our confined space entry program is well-informed and capable of carrying out their responsibilities safely. In summary, training is an integral part of our confined space entry program. We are responsible for providing thorough and up-to-date training for all personnel involved, and it is the duty of contractors to comply with their own training and safety protocols. This ultimately contributes to a safer and more efficient work environment for all involved..

Scene 23 (37m 9s)

[Audio] We have now reached the final slide of our presentation, which is the 23rd and last slide. This particular slide highlights our confined space entry program, which is a crucial aspect of our efforts to engage employees and manage human resources. The main goal of this program is to safeguard our employees and contractors while they enter and work in confined spaces. This is achieved through the identification, control, and authorization of any hazards associated with these spaces. The program also provides necessary guidelines and references for maintaining compliance and implementing safety measures. The program is formally known as the Confined Space Entry Program and has a unique procedure number and revision number. It was approved by our HR manager, Mike Cobbs, on February 14th, 2022. The program is constantly evolving and is currently on revision A, which was modified on February 14th, 2022 by M. Cobbs. We take safety very seriously, which is why we have implemented this program to prioritize the well-being of our employees and contractors. The original version of this program was created by J. Schaan on March 11th, 2020, and has undergone multiple revisions since then. We strongly believe in continuous improvement, and each revision is a step towards making this program even more effective. It is important to note that the original procedures are indicated with the term "ORIGINAL" in the revision section of the header, while subsequent revisions are identified by letters or alphabets. For instance, our latest revision, A, has removed section 6.3.6, which previously made the Attendant responsible for monitoring the entry point, in addition to the Entrant's monitoring. And with that, we have come to the end of our presentation. We would like to thank you all for listening and for your unwavering commitment to the safety and well-being of our employees. Let us continue to strive for a secure and safe working environment. Thank you..
