Addressing the Risk of Trenching and Excavation Site Cave-Ins

Sentry Insurance

You can reduce the risk of cave-ins by implementing robust protective measures, conducting a thorough soil analysis, proper training, and maintaining vigilant inspection routines.

Protective systems are a key element in making sure your trenching and excavation site is safe. They’re required for trenches that exceed five feet in depth or aren’t cut entirely into stable rock.
