Instructor: Michael R. Roop, CSP, MRE, LLC, Richmond, TX

Description: Sponsored by the Standards Development Committee
Many employers still do not get that OSHA requires confined space rescue. This presentation will discuss two recent cases resulting in a total of six deaths that occurred because the employers intentionally side-stepped rules. The session will illustrate the tragic consequences of failure to plan and then act in entry emergencies.
