Confined space medicals have been designed to evaluate a worker’s capacity to work within confined space environments safely and without risk of developing or aggravating an injury and/or medical condition.
Confined spaces are those that are not designed for continuous occupancy and pose a potential health and safety risk for those required to perform work within them for a duration of time. Potential confined spaces include vessels, tanks, silos, pipes, tunnels, pits and/or equipment housings.
The medical status of a worker can change over time and so IOH recommends implementing a periodic confined spaces health assessment program.
The assessment will include spirometry and respiratory fit testing can also be completed in our clinic ensuring you have an efficient and streamlined assessment program for your team.
