CAT & Genny and Safe Excavation Training
Working around underground services requires the right knowledge, equipment and working practices. Our EUSR training covers locating buried utilities and implementing safe excavation procedures to help operatives work safely around underground infrastructure.
Who Is EUSR Training For?
EUSR Utility Excavations training may be relevant to people whose work involves locating underground services, disturbing the ground or carrying out excavation activities.

Underground services can present serious risks during excavation. Electrical cables, gas pipelines, water mains and other buried infrastructure may not always be obvious from the surface.
Correct use of utility detection equipment, combined with appropriate planning and safe excavation practices, can help workers identify potential hazards before work begins and reduce the risk of damaging underground services.
