What a competent person for excavations needs to know: the job, permits and 811, soil classification, sloping, shoring and shields, access, water and air, and daily inspections.
Your annual IIPP overview, built from SMS-001: what the program is and who's who, your right to stop unsafe work, discipline and no retaliation, how to report a hazard, the hierarchy of controls, what happens when someone gets hurt, and training and records.
Field training on the three dusts and fumes that cause disease years down the road: respirable crystalline silica, asbestos including AC pipe, and lead. Covers the controls, respirators, and rules for each, with foreman lessons on running the plan.
New courses will show up here as they're built. Check back, or ask Aaron Autsen, Safety Specialist, what's next.
