When it comes to confined spaces, safety is always a top priority.

When working in totally or partially enclosed spaces, GardaWorld ensures that your employes are safe at all times.

  • Order immediate evacuation in the presence of an uncontrolled hazard or when a situation arises that requires this.
  • Verify air quality during entry.
