Safety Mindset
We all know the metal building construction industry, and the construction industry in general, can be a very dangerous job. The risk level significantly rises when working at heights. Unfortunately, many workers will be injured or killed from falling in a construction related accident. Most, if not all, can be avoided. Developing a safety plan, and practicing the plan, is key to keeping you, and your workers safe while working at heights.
Do You Have A Safety Plan?
Are All Employees Properly Trained?
Do Your Employees Know What To Do If An Accident Occurs?
By having a safety plan and properly trained employees, you could save someone's life. There should be no "acceptable risk" allowed. Everyone should have a SAFETY MINDSET, and work together to keep each other safe.
Another aspect of safety is budget. Are you budgeting for safety? Are you adding safety to cost? Is safety added as a line item? From a business standpoint, this is essential. Ensuring the job will be completed SAFELY will help your business be successful. Investing in some sort of fall protection system like ours is a capital investment. You can use the system on every job, and it will pay for itself rather quickly. As a general contractor, you should not allow anyone working at heights without fall protection. Keep in mind, should a fall occur, the responsibility will fall back on you. Therefore, having a SAFETY MINDSET is not only the workers responsibility, but also the GC, and everyone else involved with the project. Lets work together, and make sure we all go home at the end of the day. Stay Safe. Stay Tied Off.
