Construction Safety Services
Construction consists of the building or assembling of infrastructure or processes. Far from being a single activity, large scale construction is a feat of human multitasking. Normally, a construction job is managed by a project manager, and supervised by a construction manager, design engineer, construction engineer, or project architect.
For the successful execution of a construction project, effective planning is essential. Those involved with the design and execution of the project must consider many things, including site selection, bid specifications, permitting, scheduling, budgeting, availability of building materials, logistics, public inconvenience and acceptance, impact to the environmental, safety of workers; just to mention a few.
Because of the complexity of construction projects, and the very nature of the work, construction sites have a higher risk of injuries than any other workplace. In fact, the construction industry consistently has the highest frequency of fatalities and disabling injuries. Because of this, it is imperative that safety be considered during the planning stages of a construction project through it’s completion.
