The proof of CCI's commitment to safety is in the numbers. CCI's EMR rating of 0.80 demonstrates our ongoing success in construction project safety as evidenced by exceptionally low injury rates. Over the course of our history, we have repeatedly achieved excellent safety ratings as a direct result of our practices, procedures, and training. Safety does not come about by chance. CCI exercises multiple initiatives to prevent accidents and protect the health and safety of our workers and community members near work zones. These include:
- Safety meetings conducted by construction safety experts
- Mandatory weekly toolbox meetings to discuss project-specific safety issues and resolve concerns (e.g., tips on responding to traffic conditions or equipment use)
- Safety meetings conducted by construction safety experts
- Mandatory weekly toolbox meetings to discuss project-specific safety issues and resolve concerns (e.g., tips on responding to traffic conditions or equipment use)
- Mandatory OSHA 10-hour safety course
- Ample use of street and work zone signage, barricades, traffic cones, flagmen, high-visibility fluorescent vests for all employees, fencing, A-frames, warning lights (strobes where appropriate), and delineator poles heavy equipment fitted with security mirrors, highly visible warning lights, loud warning devices, and computerized speed controllers
- Special equipment training and annual driver 6-hour review course
- Cooperation with our insurance company to manage risk and prevent injury
CCI achieves success in safety not merely by following OSHA or DOT rules and regulations. We foster an atmosphere of team collaboration, and we reward employees quarterly based on safety excellence.
At CCI Companies, safety is everyone's business.
