Reclassification - Procedure Tab

Use the Procedure tab to define the procedure to follow in order to reclassify the confined space for entry without a permit. For example, before entering the confined space one might need to 1) notify the safety department, 2) lockout out the hazard, and 3) verify that the hazard is contained. Use one row of the form to define each step.

To fill in this form:

  1. In the Step column, click to expand the list and select the type of action to take in this step. A description is provided in the box below. Edit the description if needed. For example, "Notify the safety department at x3250."
  2. If a lockout procedure is associated with this step, select it from the Associated Procedure/Document list in the Control Method column.
  3. Type any directions to follow for this step in the text box in the Control Method column. For example, if the step is to verify that the hazard is contained, the directions might involve checking the lock, making sure the locked out hazard cannot be turned on, and testing the atmospheric level of a gas.
  4. Click Add New Row to add another step to the procedure and follow the directions above to fill it in.
  5. If you want to delete a row or change the order of the steps, click anywhere in the step you want to change and use the Delete this Row, Move Up, or Move Down buttons.
