EUSR

EUSR (Deep Excavation)

 EUSR (Energy & Utility Skills Register) was established for the energy and utilities sector to verify an individual’s training and skills record. We offer a wide range of EUSR accredited courses, from skilled-based schemes to endorsed training programmes. Individuals who complete these courses can record their attainment against their EUSR registration as an endorsement for future employment.
We can help you find the right course for you and your workforce.

Three categories of EUSR Excavation Safety courses are available with Link Training Ltd. Three types teach you how to Install, Inspect and Remove various entities:

Timber Shoring Systems (Category 3)
Steel Shoring Systems (Category 4)
Proprietary Shoring Systems (Category 5)

You will learn the dangers of excavation work and the relevant legislation on the course. With the knowledge you gain, you will recognise hazards unique to each excavation site and therefore put control measures to reduce them.
