One of the primary keys to a successful building project is the utilization of proper safety and training techniques. At Summit City Steel Erection, we are committed to policies and practices in order to avoid occupational injuries and damage to property. We have on staff a full-time Safety Director to ensure the adherence to these policies and practices in the workplace.

Safety Program Highlights

• All job sites are visited weekly by the Safety Director to inspect for any hazards and equipment deficiencies as well as to ensure that our safety policies are being adhered to by our employees.

• New job sites are inspected by the Safety Director before work begins to ensure all safety concerns are addressed up front and communicated to our employees.

• 100% fall protection when working 6 feet from an exposed fall hazard of 6 feet or greater.

• At least one-third of our workforce is certified in workplace First Aid and CPR.

• A comprehensive and successful fleet safety policy has been implemented for every employee operating a company vehicle.
