3A1.1. Wear coveralls, nitrile gloves and safety boots. All outer
personal protection should be impervious to liquid or
sludge. Where this is not possible in hot conditions, cotton
overalls may be worn but a proofed apron should be worn
to reduce the contamination.

getting inside the mask. A vacuum is created once air
supply to BA is cut-off, this is an indication that face mask
fits well. Do this simple test before each Confined Space
entry where BA is needed..
3B3.4. Wear coveralls, nitrile gloves and safety boots. All outer
personal protection should be impervious to liquid or
