Entry Supervisor Duties
The entry employer must ensure that each entry supervisor:
- Is properly trained to be familiar with and understand the hazards that may be faced during entry. Training must include information on the mode, signs or symptoms, and consequences of the exposure.
- Verifies, by checking that:
- appropriate entries have been made on the permit;
- all tests specified by the permit have been conducted; and
- all procedures and equipment specified by the permit are in place before endorsing the permit and allowing entry to begin.
- Terminates the entry and cancels or suspends the permit as required.
- Verifies that rescue services are available and the means for summoning them are operable, and that the employer will be notified as soon as the services become unavailable.
- Removes unauthorized individuals who enter or who attempt to enter the permit space during entry operations.
- Determines at intervals dictated by the hazards and operations performed within the space that entry operations remain consistent with terms of the entry permit and that acceptable entry conditions are maintained whenever responsibility for a permit space entry operation is transferred.
