Courses
At Roco Rescue, our courses teach students important rescue/safety principles so that they can better understand how to safely enter and mitigate the hazards associated with trench emergencies. We also equip students with the skills required to address hazards as they arise, preventing avoidable injuries and deaths to both the rescuers and the victims.

Trench/Excavation Competent Person
This 8-hour Trench Competent Person course is intended for Owners, Supervisors, Managers, Operators, and Safety personnel who are required to oversee Excavation and Trench work. Due to the extreme hazards involved, OSHA 29 CFR 1926.650 Subpart P (Excavations) requires at least one person be trained as a Competent Person for excavation sites, which includes trenching activities. OSHA has recognized that a higher level of training and experience is required than a normal worker would possess. OSHA relies on the Competent Person for certain activities or safety procedures at a construction site such as design, daily inspections, and supervision. If you are supervising an excavation/trench job or are signing off on a permit for excavation work…you need this class!
