Safety

We put great emphasis on keep our people safe as well as protecting our client, their employees, and property. We also understand how important safety performance is to our clients. Evers Construction prides itself on having excellent EMR, DART, and TRIR scores and are available upon request.

We also understand that will adherence to the OSHA 1926 Construction Standards are the guiding principles or our policy and training, many of our clients require adherence to the OSHA 1910 General Industry standard. Either way, we are ready, trained and equipped to work safety at your facility.

All of our team members are trained and tested upon hiring and refreshed annually at minimum, in addition to topic specific training weekly.

We strive to provide a safe work environment, free of known hazards through pre-planning in order to minimize or eliminate hazards. Through training in safe work practices and the use of proper personal protective equipment. Protection for hazards that cannot be eliminated is provided.

Pre-planning every aspect of our work is a critical part of our safety program. A safe plan of work is developed prior to start-up of a project and discussed with all employees involved. Employees are required to attend tool-box meetings that discuss the job’s tasks including hazards and methods for eliminating or minimizing those hazards. Employee input is encouraged during these meetings.

Employees are trained to conduct a hazard assessment of their work areas daily and insure that those working around them are doing so safely. Employees use a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) to plan their work activities and insure that all employees understand the assigned tasks.

Communication is a very important part of our safety program, because we not only communicate our expectations to our employees, we also encourage feedback so everyone takes ownership.
