Every excavation project presents unique risks, including cave-ins, falling loads, hazardous atmospheres, underground utilities, and unstable soil conditions. Without proper planning and protective systems, workers can be seriously injured or killed within seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the greatest dangers during excavation work is a trench collapse. A cave-in occurs when soil or rock suddenly gives way, trapping or burying workers inside the excavation. Because soil conditions constantly change, every trench should be evaluated before work begins and throughout the project by a qualified competent person.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis training explains the essential principles of excavation safety, including OSHA's requirements for trench protection, soil classification, hazard recognition, and excavation inspections. Participants will learn how protective systems such as sloping, benching, shoring, and shielding help reduce the risk of collapse and provide safer working conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe course also reviews the importance of identifying underground utilities, monitoring changing site conditions, controlling water accumulation, and recognizing hazards created by nearby structures, equipment, and traffic. Understanding these factors allows employers and employees to make informed decisions before entering an excavation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're working in construction, utility installation, public works, maintenance, or excavation operations, this training provides practical knowledge to help reduce excavation hazards, improve OSHA compliance, and create a safer work environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpanish and French closed captions are available with this program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExplains OSHA excavation, trenching, and shoring safety requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCovers trench cave-in hazards and prevention strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviews soil classification and protective system selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscusses the responsibilities of the competent person.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePromotes safer excavation planning and hazard recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for construction, utility, excavation, and public works professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCourse Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCourse Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 Minutes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e AT117\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/strong\u003e English, Spanish, French\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParticipant Guide:\u003c\/strong\u003e Downloadable participant guide included\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStreaming video on-demand\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLearning Management System (LMS) compatible\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHosted LMS access available\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear Produced:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is licensing calculated?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLicensing is based on the total number of learners who will access the course during the license period.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I train more than 250 employees?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYes.
