Question

When you see this sign with the word DANGER and this image you should understand that:

(B) You are entering an area with confined space
(C) This is an entry to air duct. Air pressure may suck you further inside
(D) None of the above

Give me a hint

Show me the Answer

Correct answer is:

(B) You are entering an area with confined space

Explanation:

As per OSHA, if a workplace has permit spaces, the employer must inform exposed employees with danger signs or other warnings about the existence and location of permit spaces and the hazards associated with them. NOTE: A sign that reads “DANGER -- PERMIT-REQUIRED CONFINED SPACE”, “DO NOT ENTER” or other similar language meets the requirement for a warning sign.
