SAFETY

Our objective is to ensure everyone goes home safe and free from injury. We are committed to leading the industry in quality and providing the tools our employees need to do their job safely. 

We are Committed to Safety

Branco does not compromise when it comes to the safety. It is our commitment to ensure each employee receives proper safety training, including the recognition of unsafe conditions and understanding the regulations applicable to his/her work environment. The Branco leadership team empowers all employees to intervene if they feel a situation is unsafe or has the potential to become unsafe.

Safety on the Job

Branco’s corporate Safety Director works closely with the project team regarding on-site safety and housekeeping practices. Together, they work with the Project Owner to develop a site safety plan specific to their unique needs. Periodic safety inspections are performed, as well as frequent on-site inspections and focused training is provided if necessary. Additionally, before work begins on all job sites our superintendents hold Safety Tool Box talks to keep safety top of mind as our team starts their day. Branco strives to be the leader in training as new safety requirements and certifications become available.

Safety Training

We require all personnel to be OSHA certified before entering any job site. Branco also performs our own focused, specific training on any identified risks for clients and job sites.
