Surpassing Industry Standards
The responsibility for maintaining a successful Health, Safety and Environmental program is shared as a team, meaning our officers, supervisors and every employee adhere to our safety program every day on every job.
As indicated in the EMR chart, we currently boast an Experience Modification Rating or EMR which is lower than the majority of industry peers. We take great pride in this achievement, and we hope you will too.
Our Commitment
As a company, we are committed to the safety and wellbeing of each of our employees, the environment, and our clients. To do this, we:
Require applicants to pass drug and alcohol screening before being considered for employment. Once employment begins, employees are subjected to random screening, and are required to adhere to our Zero Tolerance Substance Abuse Policy.
Thoroughly train employees on health, safety and environmental matters as they relate to federal, state, local, company and client regulations.
Hold each employee accountable to complying with such regulations and to reporting deficiencies clearly and immediately to supervisors.
Require completion of JSA’s every day for every job.
Promote the universal use of “Stop Work Authority.”
Conduct weekly safety meetings on a wide range of topics to keep employees informed about working safely.
Provide fire extinguishers and first aid kits in each vehicle in our fleet.
Provide Safety Portfolios in each vehicle in our fleet, containing JSAs, Tailgate Topics, Accident and Emergency reporting forms, and Safety Data Sheets.
