THE NUCA SAFETY / Damage Prevention Conference, held in Denver, offered the opportunity for members involved in safety and damage prevention to hear from experts on a wide variety of topics that impact the industry and allowed networking with others from across the country.
One initiative worth keeping an eye on is the development of the Trenching and Excavation Safety Taskforce (TEST). Supported by many companies and NUCA of Colorado, their mission is to create industry awareness and drive insight into trenching and excavation safety, collaborating without organizational or geographic boundaries in an effort to improve day-to-day safety for field workers. We look forward to Excavation Safety Magazine helping them spread their message in future issues.
