All new hires undergo a comprehensive 4-hour hands-on safety orientation at our office, conducted by our Safety Manager. During this session, they receive training on our safety policies, specific hazards related to their trade, and preventive measures. Additionally, they are provided with our Employee Safety Packet in English and/or Spanish, which includes our safety policies and procedures. Each employee acknowledges receipt and understanding by signing off on the packet.

We conduct continuous safety training tailored to each employee's needs, considering their experience level with our tools, equipment, and job site-specific requirements.

Our Professional Construction Leaders (PCLs) receive training in leadership skills, competent person training, accident investigation, scaffold and fall protection, coaching, and enforcement of unsafe acts. With approximately 45 PCLs, each is trained to conduct weekly toolbox talks, safety inspections, field accident reports, and use our Assured Ground Program and "Unsafe Act Hot List." These tasks are performed electronically through an app for timely communication with the Safety Manager.

PCLs lead by example, ensuring safe job sites and conducting daily Task-Based Safety Awareness Huddles with crews before work begins. These huddles are a key factor in our safety success.
