Safety is a fundamental element of our business. It is a priority that never waivers, no matter what time frame we are up against. We provide safe, reliable solutions.
From the Safety Director:
Safety is a key part of a successful project. Our safety program uses education, hands on training, and job site inspections to ensure that we are doing everything we can to create safe work sites for our employees, other trades and our customers.
Safety Policy
We have a written safety policy outlining all areas of safety concern and what we require and expect from our employees. There are clear guidelines and written consequences for not adhering to them. We constantly review and amend our policy to keep up with current standards and new equipment requirements.
Safety Inspections
We conduct routine safety inspections on all of our jobs. These inspections are performed by our full-time Safety Director and are also the responsibility of our project supervisors each time they visit a site. These inspections are followed up with a written report given to the project foreman with clear instructions on any violations requiring immediate action.
