AZTECH
ELECTRIC’s approach to safety is basically simple. We treat safety as
a company and personal value and strive to produce a -0- incident
environment. We approach this philosophy from a number of directions.
1.
It is mandatory that each employee read, understand and agree to
comply with our written company safety policy.
2.
Our company is dedicated to the ongoing education and safety
specific training of all employees. We require this training on a
weekly basis, and are willing to pay for it.
3. AZTECH ELECTRIC'S company
Safety Officer assures conformance to our plan and continuously updates and
modify the plan to stay ahead of the latest and best safety ideas and
methods. Our Safety Officer has the full support of upper management.
4. AZTECH ELECTRIC involves its
insurance company loss control specialist to work with our Safety Officer
to continue to find new ways to prevent accidents in the work place.
5. In addition to our company safety
policy, AZTECH ELECTRIC develops a separate site specific safety policy for
each of our major projects. This allows us to identify hazards unique
to a specific project in order to mitigate the risk.
Complementing
our written policies and mandatory practices, AZTECH ELECTRIC has been a
pioneer in the electrical industry in establishing a drug free work place
policy. This policy includes initial testing of all employees with
ongoing random testing. The policy further requires testing of any
individual involved in an accident.
While
some of our types of work have a higher risk and subsequent loss due to
accident, we are determined to take all necessary steps to continue to
improve our safety record. Realizing that the insurance rates reflect
reporting of incidence, and that rates are affected by work history from
three years previously reported, we proudly report that our rates have
declined. Accompanied by the expanded Safety Program with a full time
Safety Officer, and backed by a committed management team, we look forward
to a safer AZTECH ELECTRIC for years to come.
