Construction Safety Training Resource

I read a lot of OSHA press releases and have noticed that excavation cave-ins are a major source of injuries, fatalities and OSHA fines. The construction Safety Council offers a free online course that will help you improve excavation safety. The course is called:

EXCAVATION HAZARDS TRAINING FOR THE COMPETENT PERSON
(29 CFR 1926, SUBPART P)

The following is the description provided on the web site:

"
At the conclusion of this course, the participant will understand the importance and duties of a competent person performing or supervising excavation work. They will also have the knowledge and skills that are required to perform the duties required of the competent person. A passing score on the final exam will qualify participant to receive an Excavation Competent Person Training Certificate from the Construction Safety Council."
