Competent Person Training

A competent person is one who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the surroundings or working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous, and/or dangerous to employees, and has the authority to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.

Only a licensed contractor can
measure the knowledge or ability of
an employee and designate them as
a competent person. This course
provides understandings of the
excavation standard and protective systems.

This program has been designed to provide your labor force with the classroom training which along with their field experience may enable them to become a “Competent Person” as defined by OSHA.
