Workers are killed every year while performing dangerous jobs inside confined spaces. Some have died because of lack of oxygen, toxic gases like argon and fires, to mention a few causes. In 2022, 44 workers died in confined spaces — a 41% increase from a decade earlier, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The same agency issued a 2020 report showing that 1,030 workers died from occupational injuries involving a confined space from 2011 to 2018.
