Employee Safety & Health Comes
First
KD Electric, Inc. has always maintained a very high
standard for safety and health in the workplace where we take full responsibility
for our safety. We have improved our safety awareness through continued education and certifications
in all aspects of safe work practices. We have trained procedures to ensure
the safety of our workforce and protect all those around us on the project.
Establishing and monitoring safe workplace practices and performing routine safety
inspections are just two of the many ways that we at KD Electric, Inc. strive
to reduce the potentials of injuries at work. Key to this is an acceptance from
our employees that safety is our number one priority.
Key Elements of our Safety Program:
- Each foreman and supervisor is required to complete an OSHA 10 and
30 hour training class
- Wear at all times (as required) while on the job site a Kd Electric
assigned hard hat, safety glasses, and boots - this also applies to
keeping tools in good operating condition, wearing proper work attire,
using lifts and ladders correctly, and helping to maintain a clean/unobstructed
worksite
- Site specific safety plans - evaluate safety needs prior to the start
of a new job
- Investigate any and all accidents
- Maintain records of all jobsite injuries on required OSHA forms
- To maintain an open door policy for employees to consult with management
regarding any safety problems or concerns
- Conduct weekly foreman led "tool box talk" meetings
- Each employee is responsible for attending and completing a continuing
safety training program
- Newly hired employees must attend a "New Hire Safety Orientation" class
Our Safety Program is another sign that "The
Safe way is the Best way"
