The 2018 Trench Safety Stand Down is officially endorsed by OSHA and NUCA’s Trench Safety Stand Down is also sponsored by the Safety Ambassadors Club.
How to Conduct a Safety Stand Down:
Companies will conduct a Trench Safety Stand Down by taking a break to have a toolbox talk or another safety activity to draw attention to the specific hazards related to working in and around trenches/excavations. We ask that companies provide feedback about their Stand Down, such as when it was held, how many workers participated, how you shared information with employees. NUCA will collect the information, publicize the overall total number of participants, and publish the names of the companies that held a Trench Safety Stand Down. You can find all the appropriate documentation below in TSSD Forms.
The next meeting is May 2, 2018 at 8am and it will be held at NEIT. Cardi Corporation will provide the coffee and calories.
From Bob Kunz:
Team SAFER,
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.38 (General Industry) and 29 CFR 1926.35 (Construction) outline requirements for emergency action plans. The Providence Fire Department provides for the protection of human life and property from fire and other disasters, either natural or man-made, through fire safety education, the development, and enforcement of fire codes, provision of emergency medical services and suppression of fire, for example.
The staff and partners at your facility and or construction project may have knowledge and equipment that may be critical to protect the lives of the responders, required for the successful rescue of workers and mitigation of property loss including adjacencies. So how do you fit in…..
Please join us for an informative discussion concerning National Incident Management System (NIMS) including without limitation unified command.
Mike Dillon (retired Chief PFD) is the guest speaker.
See you on Wednesday morning.
Regards,
