- Abstract
Working in confined (limited) spaces represents a risk factor generating accidents or undesirable events, having an impact on human health. Applying the rules of good practice in these situations is a mandatory preventive measure. A confined space is any place that is not currently designated for work. It has entry or exit restrictions, a normal atmospheric pressure, inadequate ventilation and danger of drowning or suffocation, contaminated air or oxygen deficiency. The decisive factor in ensuring success of the intervention and rescue operations in toxic or chemical aggressive environments resides in optimal and efficient design of a training process for rescue personnel comprising inclusively intervention in confined spaces. Identifying an optimum training route for intervention and rescue personnel in confined spaces, enables simulation of intervention activities in horizontal and vertical limited spaces, low visibility, high temperature and humidity environments, etc., having as a purpose the preparation of intervention and rescue teams for situations close to reality. This paper was developed within the Nucleu-Programme, carried out with the support of ANCSI, project no. PN-16-43-02-18.
