The best safety and
health programs involve every level of the organization instilling a safety
culture that reduces accidents for workers. When Safety and Health are part
of the organization and a way of life, everyone wins.
An effective safety
and health program makes all the difference in preventing injuries and
illnesses in the workplace. The result is lower accident-related costs.
Other benefits include reduced absenteeism, lower turnover, higher
productivity, and improved employee morale. And it's the right thing to do.
Our goal is a solid
commitment to safety by implementing a safety and health program that
benchmarks the power line construction industry.
We recognize that our
daily operations involve various hazards. We also believe accidents and
risks can be greatly reduced if everyone understands and follows safe work
practices.
We have an aggressive
on site random drug testing program that meets both state, federal and DOT guidelines
that is implemented quarterly.
We promote safety in
the workplace at all levels through an environment of teamwork, trust,
education and training. Based on measurable criteria, Outback Power
Company has
established an enviable standard of safety excellence in the power line
construction industry. Everyone in our company has a voice in safety
through our “total work force” safety committee.
We are proud of our
accomplishments in the area of safety and health. We have made a bold
commitment to a higher standard. We strive for zero accidents, reinforcing
our company’s commitment to safety as our foremost priority.
For our clients,
Outback Power company's tradition of safety means lower insurance rates, better morale
and greater productivity.
The single most
important factor in the prevention of accidents is a positive attitude
toward safety.
A positive attitude
toward safety makes a safer work crew.
