The Hindu Business Line has reported a confined space accident in a textile mill in Erode where 7 workers lost their lives. Apparently, the accident took place when maintenance work was taking place in a sunken pit in a ETP, when a valve broke and released poisonous fumes. The would be rescuers ( 6 of them) entered the pit one by one to rescue the others and died. Please emphasize in your training the importance of rescuers NOT to enter any space for rescue unless they are adequately protected. This incident is a tragic loss of life
