033: SHORING - Why Was This Company Fined?

OSHA Oops! with GotSafety

In this week's episode of the OSHA Oops! Podcast, Michael and Rick are discussing a company that was fined by OSHA because they did not have a permit to dig deeper than 5 feet and they did not have shoring in place to avoid cave-ins. This serves as a reminder that it's always important to follow the rules and regulations set forth by OSHA. Not doing so can not only result in hefty fines but also create dangerous situations for workers. So if you're planning on doing any excavation work, make sure you get the proper permits and put safety first.
