As a self-performing contractor, safety is deeply embedded in every aspect of our culture, both on and off site. Our commitment to prioritizing safety is reflected in our hundreds of thousands of hours worked, with few incidents. Safety of the general public, the environment, our employees, and other personnel on or near the work site will always be our team’s top priority.
From interns to senior leadership, everyone is accountable for safety. We identify potentially unsafe work practices, conditions, and equipment, before anyone is negatively impacted. We perform work in the safest manner possible, going above and beyond regulations and industry standards to significantly increase personnel safety.
At all our job sites, we maintain a robust culture of safety by focusing on our most important individual motivations. No matter what inspires us – family, friends, health and well-being, beloved pets, or hobbies – these reminders keep each team member dedicated to their commitment towards maintaining the safest working conditions.
Our comprehensive system of Improve-Its ensures everyone has an active role in job site safety. With a convenient phone app, employees have the power to recognize success and call attention to areas that need improvement. Thanks to this innovative program, no issue is ever overlooked; each item flagged for change is assigned a responsible party to find resolution.
Our leadership plays a vital role in promoting safety. They are proactive participants in safety training and engage in open and accessible conversations with the project teams. With our executive team actively engaged in all aspects of the safety program, we work towards one unified goal – a zero incident environment, on every project, every single day.
Our Craft Safety Leadership Team is made up of craft professionals that have shown exceptional leadership in championing a safe work environment. Their input provides us with valuable insights and allows us to refine processes so we can continually raise safety standards on jobsites around the country.
