SAFETY
Technology on the jobsite may be changing at the speed of light, but one thing
that will never change is the inherent dangerous nature of construction.
At Gastonia Plumbing & Heating safety
is a cornerstone of our company’s foundation.
Comprehensive programs have been implemented to provide our employees the
proper training to handle hazardous job conditions.
Competent person trenching, the latest fall protection equipment and
training, extensive Hazcom, confined space entry procedures,
and an “All hardhats, all the time” policy, backed up by meticulous
documentation are just a few of the parts of our strong safety program.
In recent years we have earned training and safety awards from our
insurance carriers and the Carolina’s AGC. More importantly though we have earned an insurance modifier
which is less than the industry standard, proving that working safely is just as
profitable as finishing a job ahead of schedule.
Each year GP&H holds an annual “Safety Day” at which time all
employees participate in courses which are specific to situations faced in our
industry. The culmination of
“Safety Day” involves the award of safety incentive bonuses earned for
working safely and without “lost work time accidents.”
At Gastonia Plumbing & Heating we put safety first because our
employees are the
greatest assets we have.
