The Hole You Dig: Ground Disturbance Gone Wrong
The Hole You Dig: The Real Cost of Ground Disturbance Gone Wrong is an online course developed by Safety in Schools which focuses on the widespread impact that digging gone wrong can have on the surrounding community, residents and businesses.
The course was originally developed for a high school audience and released to high school users in August 2017, however the course material is appropriate for adults as well and is now available online.
This course was sponsored by Alberta Labour through an Alberta Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) Innovation and Engagement Grant, and developed with support and technical assistance from Utility Safety Partners.
