Course Description 

Excavation and trenching work is performed thousands of times daily in all conditions. Unfortunately, many fatalities and work-related injuries are associated with excavation and trenching incidents. Cave-ins can occur suddenly, without warning, giving you little time to react. But their signs are present when proper safety precautions are not taken. This program has been created to increase your awareness and better understand the safety procedures associated with your work. Ideal learners are employees who work in or near excavations and trenches.

  • List the hazards associated with excavation and trenching work.
