Project estimators consult with field operation personnel and company
safety officers to ensure that the project’s contractual obligations
can be completed safely. After receiving the contract, competent
personnel specific to the site assess all hazards. They then eliminate
or implement control measures to protect all personnel on that site
as well as the public and the environment.
Informal and formal worksite inspections are conducted. Weekly safety
meetings on each site are held to identify possible changing situations
or “near misses” that may have occurred. Maintenance of all equipment,
tools and safety equipment is strictly adhered to per the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
If
an accident or near miss occurs, investigations are conducted with
recommendations implemented to prevent re-occurrence. Company rules
are clearly defined and strictly adhered to. Safe work practices
and job procedures are reviewed regularly to ensure that they are
task and site specific.
A
drug and alcohol policy, and a sexual harassment policy were developed
to ensure and promote a positive attitude as well as a committed
corporate position. Employees need to know that they are in a safe
work environment and that their physical and mental wellness are
protected.
Leadership
is promoted throughout all levels of our company. Continued training
and education, and positive attitudes ensure a successful safety
program – one we are proud of.
