Safety and Health
No risk is worth your life or health.
The Best Hands in the Business do not take Risks!
Construction work is one of the most dangerous occupations, but it doesn't have to be. Hazards hurt, disable and kill people, eliminating them should be the primary focus of every safety program.
A positive Safety Culture happens when trust exist between management and workers. Those on the front line need to feel comfortable speaking with supervision about important issues such as safety without fear of losing their job. Safety is everyone's responsibility, understanding how to get it done requires Safety Leadership.
