Safety
Norwood’s Award-Winning Safety Program is designed to help protect everyone from preventable injuries by putting SAFETY FIRST on all of our work sites.
Norwood is a Partnership Participant of the United States Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) through Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC). We are audited annually through S.T.E.P., ABC’s Safety Training and Evaluation Process. Our efforts continue to earn the prestigious Diamond level status, a designation given to those companies who display the highest level of safety performance and long-term commitment to jobsite safety. Norwood’s Corporate Safety Committee has also been certified by The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. These partnerships coupled with our expert leadership help Norwood maintain an impressive EMR, well below the industry standard.
Norwood’s Director of Safety acts as Chairman of Norwood’s Corporate Safety Committee and is responsible for spearheading all staff training and subcontractor training as well as conducting weekly inspections, directing ‘Tool-Box’ meetings, and enforcing all safety requirements on each project.
On your jobsite, Norwood’s team will implement a tailored logistics plan and a site-specific safety plan to ensure a clean and safe environment where each worker is an active and willing participant in our safety culture.
