Safety Commitment
A well-run business is one that values its safety record: for employees, on job sites and with customers. To that end, Freije Engineered Solutions has implemented high-level safety policies and practices for every aspect of our work.
Our philosophy is that great ideas can become great business practice; this is true as well in our safety policies. We hold our employees to a high standard, and in turn value their input. Our excellent level of communication helps guarantee a better safety record. If an employee on a job site sees an unsafe situation, the employee must report it immediately to his/her supervisor. The supervisor must report it to the safety director for further investigation. Once the safety hazard had been addressed and a solution implemented, a meeting is conducted with the affected field staff regarding the outcome. Freije has an open door policy with safety for all its’ employees.
Our continuous training, education, and testing help ensure safer work practices:
- All new employees must complete Safety Orientation Training, which includes proper usage of company-provided personal protection equipment.
- Employees must also complete a 10 hour OSHA training course within 90 days of hire.
- Drug and alcohol testing occurs pre-employment, randomly during employment, and post-accident.
- Employees receive annual training in specific trade-related safety areas such as: scissor lift training, confined space training, fall hazard, proper use of lanyards and respirator usage.
Our employees even designed our safety slogan: Safety is No Accident. At Freije Engineered Solutions, we believe that every employee is an integral part of keeping our safety record exemplary. Freije has attained scores well under (1.0) for our experience modification rate (EMR). Freije achieved this by consist diligence in safety management, and our team concept from office staff through field technicians.
