Staying in Touch: Jacquelyn Oduro
Spring is finally here, and with it the necessary planning for the road construction season. Safety education and training are critical to your start-up plans.
By nature, construction is a hazardous industry.
To illustrate the importance of making safety job #1, there is a report this month of an Alberta paving and road construction company assessed $295,000 in penalties after pleading guilty to failing to ensure the health and safety of a worker who died nearly three years ago. The worker was asphyxiated while cleaning out a gravel bin with a running conveyor. This stands as an example of what can happen when safety and health systems are not in place.
With over 35 years of road construction safety experience, MHCA® WORKSAFELY® can help with questions, training and resources for the upcoming road construction season.
