SAFETY is JOB#1
ABC
Cutting Contractors has an outstanding record of job safety and attention
to the details that keep our job sites injury free.
Safety is a prime concern in all of ABC Cutting
Contractors, Inc.’s operations. It is our policy and goal to provide
a healthy, safe working environment, to abide by federal, state, and
local standards, and to follow good construction practices. Accident
prevention shall be considered of primary importance in all phases
of operation and administration. ABC considers OSHA and IOSHA
standards, guidelines and regulations as the minimum standards on
our jobsites.
The primary responsibility for the coordination, implementation, and
maintenance of our safety program has been assigned to our Safety
Director, Bill Runion. A Safety Committee has also been established
to assist in evaluating safety rules and regulations, reviewing
incidents, and identifying and recommending corrective measures and
improvements for the safety program.
Safety training is provided that includes written materials, safety
films, industry seminars and jobsite training with toolbox talks and
evaluations.
Safety to the worker, as well as to others engaged in the same
operations, is not only dependent upon total commitment from
management and the judgment of the superintendent in charge, but
also on the individual workers themselves. All ABC personnel are
expected to apply good sense and use safe practices while working on
jobsites and to use good judgment in the application of policies.
Our program’s instructions and rules must be obeyed for the good of
all workers. Proper safety devices and precautions must be used.
Setting the tone for safety at the beginning of a project will pay
off tremendously all throughout the job. The safe way to do a job
must be found before going ahead.
ABC personnel and visitors on all ABC worksites or operations are
expected to comply with the safety rules and regulations in effect
at each site and perform their work in a safe manner. ABC will
strive to ensure that the operations of other contractors not under
our control do not endanger the safety of our employees or the
public in general. To this end all employees are required to report
any hazardous and unsafe activities to the appropriate ABC officials
for correction.
This policy statement and our corresponding safety program expresses
management’s commitment to and involvement in providing and
maintaining a safe and healthful work environment. It is our goal to
strive for zero injuries and to be an industry leader in safety
performance. With the combined efforts of our employees and the
contractors for whom we work, we feel this is an obtainable goal.
