Join the Conversation With Industry Experts On May 21st at 1:00 p.m. ET

Underground utility work presents some of the highest-risk environments in the industry. From trench collapses to accidental contact with power lines, the consequences of unsafe practices can be fatal—but are entirely preventable.

In this 45-minute webinar, CM Labs experts Devon Van de Kletersteeg and Trinidad Ruiz will explore how utility companies can strengthen their safety culture through best practices and simulation-based training. This session is packed with practical insights, real-world examples, and a look at the technologies shaping the future of utility safety.

You’ll Learn:

  • Common causes of incidents in trenching and electrical operations—and how to prevent them

  • OSHA regulations every utility operator should know

  • The role of site inspections, pre-shift checks, and protective systems in mitigating risks

  • How simulation training provides a safe, repeatable environment for high-risk scenario practice

  • Real-world success stories from utility companies using simulation to improve safety

    This is a must-attend event for operations managers, utility leaders, and anyone interested in simulations in the workplace. We encourage you to forward this webinar to the relevant executive and training stakeholders on your team.

    Time will be dedicated at the end of the discussion to answer live audience questions.

    Attendance worth 1 contact hour for certification/CUSP maintenance.
