To mitigate these risks and ensure a safe working environment, companies like Sygma Solutions play a crucial role in providing comprehensive training for operatives. With a focus on the industry standard HSG47 guidelines, Sygma Solutions empowers workers to identify and verify underground services before commencing any excavation work, ultimately enhancing safety and reducing the likelihood of accidents.

Excavation work is a vital aspect of most construction projects, but it also poses significant risks when carried out without proper knowledge of underground services. Accidental damage to buried utilities, such as electrical cables, gas pipelines, or telecoms, can lead to severe consequences including injuries – which on some occasions can prove fatal – costly repairs, and disruptions to essential services. At Sygma Solutions, we are a leading training provider in the avoidance of underground services and offer comprehensive cable avoidance training to equip operatives with the skills and knowledge needed to detect and avoid these underground services effectively.
