Confined Space Tags

Frequently Asked Questions

Confined space tags are used at access points to warn employees of a permit-required confined space and assist in compliance with OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.146.

A tag holder displays a default do not enter message. A valid permit or status tag can be inserted into its pouch to update the status.

Tags often include checklists for pre-entry, atmospheric level checks, or reclassification, becoming a part of the permit form itself.

They are a critical part of a confined space safety program, helping to prevent unauthorized or unprepared entry into a potentially hazardous area.

Post a Confined Space Tag at entrances or access points to assist your compliance with 29 CFR 1910.146.

• Find both OSHA Confined Space warning tags as well as Checklist tags. The tag becomes your Permit form itself – or, for some, a reinforcement of your current Confined Space procedures. The checklist helps prevent needless and unprepared entry.
• A Confined Space Tag holder is an ideal way to create a system. You can swap out different confined space tags using the holders’ “Kangaroo” pouch, depending upon the status. With no tag, the “DO NOT ENTER” message is displayed.
• Confined Space Tags are available in a range of materials, from low cost 10 mil plastic to our heavy duty / sealed 30 mil tag.
