Commitment to Safety

Our focus on safety means greater efficiency and lower costs for you and us.

Monthly/Weekly Safety Talks

Once a month or week, depending on need, each job site reviews safety measures and special concerns to be aware of.

Safety Suggestion Program

Any employee who suggests a way to improve safety that we use gets a $100 gift card.

Trust us, the extra safety is worth every penny.

From our risk manager

Shaw Electric Co. has created a safety culture committed to providing a safe work environment for all of our employees as well as members of other contractors on our job sites.

To this end, we believe that it is the responsibility of management and every employee of Shaw Electric Co. to carry out their jobs in a manner that does not create any unnecessary hazards or unsafe conditions for the employee or any other person on the jobsite.

Safety on the jobsite is not to be sacrificed under any condition to expedite the project, because of pressure from other trades or contractors, or because of personal ambivalence toward safety procedures.

At Shaw, Safety, Health, Awareness, and Wellness is every employee’s responsibility.

 

Stephanie Reinke, Risk Manager
