Safety

It is the policy of Joseph S. Smith Roofing, Inc. to strive for the highest standards on our projects. Safety does not occur by chance. It is the result of careful attention to all company operations by those who are directly and indirectly involved. Employees at all levels must work diligently to execute the company’s policy of maintaining a safe and healthy work environment.

All of our Local 30 Men receive OSHA 10-Hour training and numerous men have OSHA 30-Hour training amongst multiple certificates for training in construction operations as well.

To make our approach to safety more effective and uniform throughout the organization, we adhere to a strict Safety Program that has been reviewed and approved by web-based verification websites such as Avetta, Comply Works and ISNetworld, along with multiple General Contractors.

Our safety program has been developed to assure compliance with Federal, State and Local regulations. Particular emphasis on the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHA) and the OSHA requirements that apply to our construction operations.

Success in all safety and health matters depends upon cooperation among the company, supervisors and all employees. Only through such cooperative attitudes and efforts can a safety record in the best interest of all be established and preserved. Each employee is responsible for wholehearted, genuine cooperation with all aspects of safety and health, including compliance with all rules and regulations and continuously practicing safety while preforming their duties.

Safety consciousness must always exist in our thinking and planning and in doing so, we not only help to prevent unsafe acts on the job, but we are then able to anticipate potential hazards. Our goal is ZERO accidents, injuries and illnesses.
