⚠️🚧 Trench Safety Saves Lives — No Exceptions. Every year, workers lose their lives in trench collapses that could have been prevented. One cave-in can bury a crew member in seconds — with thousands of pounds of soil. 😞 OSHA reminds us of the essentials: 🔹 Slope it – angle the walls 🔹 Shore it – install supports 🔹 Shield it – use trench boxes 🔹 Safe entry/exit – ladders every 25 ft 🔹 Keep spoil piles back – at least 2 ft from the edge 🔹 Daily inspections – before anyone goes in The NUCA
