Safety

Your Safety is our Why

Safety is more than a word; it’s a commitment to the people and passions we cherish. We all have something that motivates us to live and work safely — we all have a WHY.

At Performance Contracting, safety is our number one Core Value, and it’s at the heart of everything we do.

Industry Leader in Safety

PCI’s culture of safety makes the difference. A safe work environment is the foundation that PCI was built upon. Our award-winning “Target Zero Incidents” safety program is absolutely integral to every project. This program provides training and keeps workers fully dedicated and accountable to the safety and integrity of your project and property. This is reflected by an EMR safety rating that far exceeds national standards.

Safety Focus Events

As our number one Core Value, safety is at the heart of everything we do. The Safety Focus is a valuable tool used to communicate best practices, regulatory changes, and to reinforce positive safety habits.

Four times each year, PCI conducts week-long Safety Focus Events at job sites across the country to focus on a particular safety issue, as well as specific issues relevant to individual job sites.

Tool Box Talks

Toolbox Talks

Weekly toolbox talks give foremen and field leadership a crucial opportunity to communicate job-specific safety messages and address issues related to upcoming tasks on the project.

Establishing an honest, open, and frequent dialogue among team members on a project is critical to setting the groundwork for safe daily practices.
