Description
Trenching and Excavating Competent Person:
OSHA requires a competent person to be present during most trenching and excavating activities (29 CFR 1926.650-652). The competent person must be familiar with choosing a soil type, choosing and properly installing a protective system, and ensuring other hazards in or near the trenching or excavating project are properly controlled.
This program is designed to provide attendees with the knowledge required to meet the OSHA Competent Person requirements and includes:
- Understanding the OSHA standard Subpart P
- Understanding the requirements and methods for properly analyzing soil
- Understanding and choosing the right protective system
- Understanding how to plan for excavation work
- Understanding other applicable OSHA standards
