We are committed to ZERO INJURY.
Throughout the construction industry, much improvement has been made in reducing worker injury in the workplace. Still, injuries continue to happen. Many companies simply accept that worker injury is an unavoidable consequence of being in the construction business. The Zero Injury Philosophy challenges us to change the way we think about and accept injuries as a part of doing business. The fact that injuries happen does not mean that injuries are acceptable. The Zero Injury Philosophy is a thought process that if a worker can work one day without an injury, the worker can work each and every additional day injury free. When Zero Injury is alive in an organization, millions of injury-free work hours can be achieved.
"Did you say MILLIONS of injury-free work hours?"
Yes. In the 1980's the Construction Industry Institute formed the "Zero Accidents Research Task Force" to identify the ways that select companies were able to work millions of hours without injury. Using the research performed by the CII task force has enabled numerous companies to set new safety performance records - with one company achieving a record of over 4,500,000 hours with zero recordable injuries in the USA. Zero Injury begins with the commitment of a company's most senior leadership, and its principle challenge is to change the old mind set that “injuries happen.”
Together we can do it.
Zero Injury is a journey and an integral part of our core values. We are not content with exceeding industry standards for safety. Our commitment is and always will be ZERO. Anything else is unacceptable.
