TMLIRP Safety and Risk Management Training Sessions
The TML Intergovernmental Risk Pool is providing safety training in La Porte on August 5, 2026. These programs are provided at no charge to TMLIRP member entities.
Local government employees will find at least one course that will help them review and improve decisions that impact themselves, co-workers, and the public.

Confined Space Safety Awareness
Confined spaces present many hazards to public employees. Employees might not recognize the dangers and take precautions necessary for safety. Knowing the hazards is one of the steps to being safe, along with understanding roles, carrying out a proper procedure, communication, and using the right tools and equipment. Confined Space Awareness will inform and motivate employees to utilize safety standards and determine appropriate steps.
Trenching and Excavation Awareness
Not understanding the hazards of excavation and trench work is a dangerous mindset. Workers are at risk if they enter an unprotected trench, and the walls collapse. With awareness of proper planning and equipment, workers can complete their responsibilities safely.

Who Should Attend?
Confined Space Safety Awareness is designed to provide awareness for any employee directly or indirectly involved in confined space operations. The course is valuable for any employee who needs to understand the dangers of confined spaces, even if they are not involved in such operations.
Trenching and Excavation Awareness is designed to provide awareness for any employee directly or indirectly involved in trenching or excavation. The course is also valuable for employees not involved in such operations who need to understand the dangers of trenching and excavation.
By providing fresh perspectives and interactive learning opportunities, TMLIRP training can benefit employees of cities and other entities throughout Texas.
