It is Mayer Construction’s policy to provide a safe and healthy work environment for all of our employees, subcontractors, suppliers and persons on or near our job sites. We believe that everyone has the right to work in safe conditions, returning home safe and healthy at the end of the day. We understand that a safe work environment will not happen without our leadership and support. It requires planning, training and commitment from management and the employees. Safety is everyone’s concern. All workers on our job sites are empowered to stop work if they notice hazards or safety problems. Workers who believe they need additional training are instructed to notify their supervisors. Our supervisors and managers must address the concerns of the workers regarding safety and health issues immediately. We ask that everyone onsite share in the responsibility of looking out for one another.

Everyone who works on our projects is obligated to know and abide by the safety requirements and standards for the job. Our supervisors are expected to be proactive about safety and health. We expect them to be “pro-safety” every minute of every day. In like fashion, we expect our employees and the other workers on site to give the training and safety meetings their utmost attention and follow all the safety regulations. Compliance with our safety policy is a condition of employment and is taken very seriously. Failure to comply will result in disciplinary action or termination for serious or repeated offenses.

Nothing is more important to Mayer Construction than safety. However, do not think that safety and health are at odds with productivity or quality. In fact they go hand in hand. Studies have shown that a safer workplace is more productive and the quality is better. We ask that everyone follow the safety rules at all times. Do not take short cuts. Do not endanger your own life and health, or that of your co-workers. We want people to be safe so they can stay healthy and enjoy life to the fullest.
