Trenching And Excavation (Field Work)

Take on the responsibilities of a safety inspector at a trenching site, where you’ll evaluate workers’ preparedness, examine trench structures, and verify equipment setup, including excavators and shielding systems. You’ll learn to identify and eliminate common hazards such as electric shock, gas leaks, wall collapse, falls from height, improper ladder placement, and machinery operation risks. By moving around and down the trench, you'll address and correct all unsafe conditions using practical safety strategies. This training ensures you leave with a thorough understanding of how to manage trench operations involving teams, heavy machinery, and varied environmental risks.

What You’ll Learn

• How to identify and eliminate excavation-related risks
• Best practices for communicating with workers on site
• Safe handling and movement of heavy machinery
• Proper gas detection and testing procedures
• Types of protective slopes and their applications
• Coordination of excavation tasks in high-risk conditions

The VR Experience

Step into a fully interactive excavation site and take on the role of a safety inspector as you perform detailed inspections in both indoor and outdoor environments. Begin by assessing team readiness and evaluating trench setup, then identify and address critical hazards such as gas leaks, electric shock risks, unstable walls, fall dangers, and equipment-related threats. Each session presents randomized hazard combinations, reinforcing your skills through varied challenges. With realistic tools and equipment operation, you’ll apply real-world safety procedures and make practical decisions that reflect the responsibilities of on-site trench safety management.
