The surface of the ground may seem smooth to the naked eye but there lies an intricate network of underground utilities. This complex network includes water pipes, power lines and communication cables. These underground utilities are the lifeblood of modern society. However, their unseen presence poses significant risks if it is not treated with proper knowledge and respect. This is where Sygma Solutions Ltd.’s Cable Avoidance Training comes to the rescue.
If you neglect CAT training, it might have far-reaching consequences. The consequences will not only impact the safety of the workers but it will also affect the efficiency of the project and become a financial liability.
Here are some of the consequences of neglecting CAT training:
The heightened risks of accidents are the number one reason why you must not neglect CAT training. When evacuation activities are carried out without the proper cable detection techniques, it leads to accidental damage. Disrupting buried utilities may result in fatal accidents. The accidents it can lead to are:
Besides being a safety hazard, disruptions to underground utilities result in project delays and disruptions. This eventually impacts the budget and project timeline.
If you neglect Cable Avoidance Training, the financial repercussions can be monumental. Companies might face hefty legal liabilities and fines for injuries and accidents caused by improper cable avoidance practices. Also, worker compensation claims can be expensive.
The consequences of disrupted underground utilities can go beyond the immediate worksite. It can result in disrupting essential services like water supply, electricity, and communication networks. Hence, this will not only give rise to potential emergencies but also cause inconvenience.
So, what are you waiting for? If you avoid these consequences related to the disruption of underground utilities, it is recommended that you register yourself for the CAT training course. This training course will equip you with the required skills and knowledge to easily detect, locate and steer clear of underground cables and other utilities when digging.
