Safety
Everyone goes home
the way they came.
Safety is the first of our three core values. It decides how every job is planned, staffed and scheduled.
On every job
How we work safely.
- 01
A plan before the work
We walk the site before we start and check what's live, what's overhead, what's underground and who else is nearby. The crew talks through the hazards together before tools come out.
- 02
De-energize first
Whenever the work allows, we de-energize before anyone touches a circuit. Shutdowns are planned with your facility staff so nothing goes dark by surprise.
- 03
Weekly safety meetings
The crew holds a documented safety meeting every Monday and on the first day at every new job site, with a sign-in sheet kept in the job file.
- 04
Anyone can stop the job
The owner leads the crew on site and has the authority to stop any work. When conditions change, we stop and reassess. No deadline is worth cutting that corner.
For owners, agencies and schools
What it means on your site.
- Work areas kept secured, clean and clear of the public, students and staff
- A written workplace violence prevention plan for crews working at schools and public sites
- Safety meeting, inspection and incident records kept for five years
- Licensed, bonded and insured, with certificates of insurance on request
Knowing our limits
Work we hand to specialists.
Some work calls for permits, equipment and rescue plans that belong with a specialist. We say so up front.
- We don't dig or enter trenches five feet or deeper. That work goes to an excavation contractor permitted for it.
- We don't enter permit-required confined spaces such as vaults and pump-station pits.
- If a job needs either one, we tell you during the site walk, before the price, not after the work starts.
