Safety

Always a primary concern, we were one of Western Pennsylvanias first contractors to have a Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry Certified Workplace Safety Committee.  For several years, we have been recipients of the Master Builders Association Certificate of Commendation for achieving Safety Excellence for having an accident rate below the national average for construction employers.

Our Safety Committee is composed of a representation of all facets of the organization and meets regularly to monitor our progress and needs.

Foremen and journey persons are routinely instructed on safety awareness and have direct communication to any of the Safety Committee members for suggestions regarding our efforts and safety procedures.  Our continuing education classes have included:  Asbestos Awareness, Asbestos Mask Fit Tests, Confined Space Training, First Aid & CPR Classes, Hazard Communications, and several OSHA Courses on Construction Standards and Competent Person Training.
