NULCA Accredited training
Quality Locating Prevents Damage
Conducting an effective Damage Prevention Program has become one of the most critical and complex programs for all utility operators in California.
The newly formed Underground Safety Board operating under the Office of Energy Infrastructure has revamped the State’s dig laws. For the first time in California’s history, utility operators face very active enforcement, accountability, fines, and penalties.
ehsInc is the only training company to have the real-world expertise, experience, and quality commitment to offer a comprehensive course that is designed specifically to address California’s regulatory requirements in complex risk management environments.
NULCA Accredited and CGA Compliant
NULCA accredited and CGA compliant training that fulfills CAL/OSHA, PHMSA and California State Contractors Licensing Board requirements for a qualified utility locator for responding to 811 (USA) Dig Notifications. Government Code 4216 (Safe Dig Act) mandates all locators successfully pass an accredited course.
Our 40-hour Initial Level Utility Locator Technician training course goes so much further than the legal minimum and accounts for the most critical reasons for California’s locate technician shortage. We focus on additional skills that are specifically for locator’s safety and risk management!
Risk Management
ehsInc recognizes California’s unique and complex legal system. Utility operators and contract locators must also navigate the complex utility regulatory bodies and their ever-changing rules. Let us take the wheel and keep all your new hires and experienced techs up-to-date with the latest legal developments and the most effective means of addressing those changes with your technicians.
Locator Specific Skills
Our hands-on training utilizes the industry’s best technology with the gold standard and the most advanced locator manufacturers.
We address the critical and locator title-specific safety needs from frequent stops to preparing to mark in the street and in private property.
We lower new hiring turn-around by lowering the stress level locator technicians face day-to-day.
Customized Modulated Program
Utility operators big and small, and contract locator companies all have their internal capabilities. ehsInc’s field experience recognizes that some organizations have their own topic-specific training, as well as shortcomings when it comes to title-specific topics. For maximum efficiency, we offer a modulated course that operators can use to custom design their training requirements. NULCA requires all topics to be covered and our 40-hour course guarantees complete accreditation!
The modulation offers operators and contractors exactly what they need for updates and refresher coverages for experienced technicians, keeping them current on regulatory and safety developments.
