In early October, the J3 team attended an annual training event, organized by the NUCA (National Utility Contractors Association). This event as the NUCA San Antonio Live Trench Training that was sponsored and hosted by HOLT CAT and Texas First Rentals LLC.  The training took place at HOLT CAT Campus in San Antonio, Texas. The event, presented in Spanish and English, had all J3 participants go through 10 interactive safety stations covering everything from sloping and benching to confined space entry and emergency response and rescue. 
 
These were the 10 interactive stations:

• Utility Locates
• Sloping and Benching

• Hydraulic Shoring and Aluminum Shield Systems 
• Vacuum Truck

At J3 the safety of our employees is paramount, The training gives J3 employees and the safety team the opportunity to remain up to date on the latest safety products and providers while also refreshing the J3 superintendent's knowledge and skills, in order to apply to J3 job sites and continue to educate J3 employees and keep the workplace safe.
