Assured Safety
In addition to our Project Managers, our job safety analysis process outlines the nature of our projects and how we will be performing the work. Taking into consideration site specific hazards and client requests, a detailed plan is outlined and implemented. Our Project Managers then perform safety inspections on a frequent basis to ensure compliance and provide the opportunity for on-site adjustments and retraining if necessary. We have found that through the consistent and extensive efforts of continual monitoring we not only ensure compliance, but we also foster a culture of collaboration and responsibility. Finally, we believe that safety is everyone’s business, so all of our employees are authorized and required to pause or stop work if they observe an unsafe condition.
