The Excavation Awareness Safety Training module addresses the unique hazards and risks associated with excavation work. Through interactive learning, participants gain practical insights into implementing effective control measures, from understanding soil stability to ensuring proper shoring and sloping techniques. The training is accessible in both virtual reality (VR) and desktop formats, providing flexibility for diverse learning environments.
Participants will learn to identify excavation-related hazards and gain practical insights into implementing effective control measures, ensuring a safe and productive work environment.
Recognize and assess hazards specific to excavation work.
Implement best practices for safe excavation operations.
Apply appropriate control measures to mitigate risks.
Develop and follow emergency response protocols for excavation incidents.
Hazard identification and risk assessment
Proficiency in excavation best practices
Implementation of safety control measures
Emergency response planning
Excavation training is crucial for on-site safety. This training is designed to equip workers with critical awareness and response strategies to minimize risks and prevent incidents.
Excavation hazards are prevalent across multiple industries where workers operate heavy machinery for excavation activities. This training is ideal for professionals, frontline workers, supervisors, and contractors working in:
Training experiences designed to increase hazard awareness, improve decision-making, and drive behavioral change.
| Traditional e-learning | Pixaera experiences | Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Information-dense and difficult to follow | Story-driven modules based on real-life SIFs and characters | Increased hazard recognition and risk assessment |
| Passive experience in the third person | First-person experience as the main protagonist with the ability to stop work | Improved intervention and decision-making |
| Lack of real experiences of failure | Experience failures, injuries, and fatalities in a hyper-realistic way | Boost in confidence and psychological safety |
| Only completions are captured | Knowledge gaps, hazard identification, and failure trends by region and group | Adoption of your organization's life-saving rules and critical controls |
This program puts workers into realistic 3D scenarios mapped to life-saving rules. Workers make the decisions they’ll face on site, see the consequences of getting them wrong, and build the instinct to get them right.
“I also think gamification is massive. I'm seeing a generational shift. People now expect a lot. They're used to great quality products, things that they can access in their personal life. And they expect the same in training. They expect it to be fun, engaging and effective. They're not going to be able to settle for what we've done in the past."
“Quite frankly, I was blown away the first time I saw it. It really feels like you are dropped on an offshore platform or into an operating plant somewhere in the world.”
The intuitive nature allows us to replace our 15-year-old lock-out training for a 12,500 global workforce.
“The high level of engagement and knowledge retention proves we’ve made the right decision. It’s not just about compliance—it’s about making safety second nature.”
“For the first time, we saw employees lining up, eager to experience safety training. That was a breakthrough moment.”
