The goal of zero harm or zero accidents assumes that all accidents are preventable. It follows then that all accidents are predictable. Is this an acceptable philosophy? It is a laudable aim, but does it go against our current approach to risk management and should we be accepting the concept of zero risk?

There are now more areas to consider, more industries that might have confined spaces and more emphasis on tasks that create a hazardous area that might be a confined space. Similarly, there is greater clarity on what isn�t a confined space and, mixed in with guidance on training and equipment inspection, there�s plenty to talk about.
