Why Take This Course

The last thing anyone wants to have happen is to see a worker buried in a trench.  Just because it looks safe and sturdy does not always mean it is.  That’s why it’s so important for all backhoe and excavator operators, as well as general laborers, to fully understand the rules and regulations about trench safety.

Learn how to avoid the common mistakes like: spoil too close to the trench, not watching for unstable ground, not stepping down sides, allowing personnel into unsupported excavations  and getting too close to underground utilities to avoid shoveling.

Consistent employee training helps to build good habits. If you don’t train your employees you let unsafe habits to be passed down from the older generation, and once new employees learn these bad habits it will be much harder to eradicate them.

Book your training session now to avoid injury and damage to the equipment and public property.  Trained employees should be actively thinking about safety and are  making the right decisions that contribute to perfect balance between safety and productivity.

Who Is This For?

Any person responsible for operating or supervising backhoe/excavators for trenching operations.
