This policy was created to protect our employees from cave-in and trench collapse while they are working in or near trenches. This policy covers the correct procedures and equipment employees are to use while setting up and working in trenches. This program also serves to help the employer and its employees comply with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) excavation requirements as found in 29 CFR 1926 Subpart P.
