Trench accidents fall into several categories

Cave-in/collapse — Improper shoring can leave a worker buried and crushed under sufficient weight to cause very serious injuries, including asphyxiation.

Falling into a trench — Workers can fall into unguarded trenches. They can also be injured if they are standing on the lip of an improperly shored trench that gives way.

Heavy machinery falling into/collapsing a trench — When heavy machinery comes too close to the edge of a trench, even one that is properly shored, it can cause risk of cave-in/collapse or the machinery falling in the trench and injuring workers in the trench or the operator.
