Since the implementation of the Trenching and Excavation OSHA Compliance Directive in 1985, theplan remained the same for 33 years up until 2018, when OSHA revitalized their efforts with their new National Emphasis Program on trenching and excavation. The renewed emphasis came after 130 fatalities were recorded in trenching and excavation operations between 2011 to 2016. The private construction industry made up 80 percent of those fatalities. Of those construction fatalities, 49 percent occurred between 2015 to 2016. OSHA needed to reinvigorate thedated Compliance Directive with their new National Emphasis Program on October 1st, 2018.Alarmingly, even after the NEP, the U.S. death toll more than doubled from 2021, in which there were 15 fatalities, to 2022 with 39 workers losing their lives in trenching and excavation operations.
