The Leaders in Utility Locating and Damage Prevention Training, Incident Investigation and Consulting Services.

Staking U

Safety Consultant Hire

Staking U can work closely with your management, engineering and safety personnel to review and advise on improvements necessary to prevent incidents, injury and damage to vital underground assets.

To help you introduce and maintain best practice on your projects, we can provide several options for auditing and reviewing your existing systems. Our best approach starts with a field audit of your team's activities to determine where your existing procedures are being met, and where there is room for improvement.

Information obtained from our field audits is then used during a desktop review of procedures, permits and utility damage reports to determine system improvements necessary to achieve simplicity and comprehensiveness. This also often presents the opportunity to remove any conflicting information from your work instructions and procedures.

On completion of auditing and reviews, Staking U can assist in creating supporting toolbox training sessions for your staff and contractors so they fully understand their obligations, in the effective implementation of procedures and permit systems.

Our trainers have extensive locating experience throughout all areas of industry and have been involved in projects ranging from small excavation works up to some of the biggest major projects in Australia. All of our trainers are DBYD (Dial Before You Dig) Certified and carry Telstra Plant Locator Accreditation. We pride ourselves on familiarity with a large range of electromagnetic pipe and cable locating devices, including all major brands currently available in Australia.
