Commitment to Safety

When work is performed safely, everyone wins

Siteworks’ award-winning performance strategy has always made the development of our safety culture a top priority. A culture that exceeds the industry standards can only be achieved when such safety protocols have been developed and integrated into the values of the company and at all levels within the organization. After all, performing work safely protects the company’s most valuable asset: our employees.

CONSTRUCTION SAFETY PROTOCOLS

Our work environment complements our ultimate goal: Ensuring that every employee goes home at the end of the day, without an injury.

Siteworks aims to provide an environment of open communications where employees at any level can make suggestions for safety improvements or stop work if unsafe conditions or behaviors are observed. Safely performed operations are productive operations and when work is performed safely, everyone wins.

By working as a team where each member holds both individual and collective accountability, our work environment leads to the ultimate goal of ensuring that every employee goes home at the end of the day, without an injury.
