North American Excavation Shoring Association (NAXSA)

Shore Up for Safety” Construction Safety Week

Dates: May 1 – 5, 2023

The North American Excavation Shoring Association (NAXSA) has timed the inaugural Shore Up for Safety Week to support National Construction Safety Week, May 1 – 5, 2023.

NAXSA’s event is a week-long, nationwide mobilization of members and colleagues as lifesavers, promoting safety awareness and training through hands-on activities with customers, contractors, and crews. The goal is to focus a full work week on reaching as many companies and workers as possible with critical information about the proper use of shoring systems.

What Qualifies as a “Shore Up for Safety” Event?

Any excavation safety training, competent person class, toolbox talk, safety meeting or presentation. Who Can Participate?

Everyone who wants to put safety awareness back into job planning and be part of creating a change in job site safety culture. In short, everyone is willing to play their part to stop unprotected trench fatalities. Anything Else?

NAXSA also provides Registered members with Shore Up for Safety stickers that deliver immediate access to safety answers and experts – a world of resources linked right to a worker’s hard hat – via a QR code easily scanned with a mobile phone. Shore Up for Safety materials position hosts, companies, and workers as positive, proactive lifesavers who will bring what they learn forward to help all peers and meet all challenges they may encounter.

NAXSA was created to promote the safe and efficient use of excavation shoring practices. It was formed to represent manufacturers, engineers, rental companies/distributors, universities/educators, associates/suppliers, and government agency representatives who share the common goal of maintaining safety in the excavation shoring industry with the result of zero deaths and injuries.
