SCHAEFER General Contracting Services continuously strives to maintain its top-notch safety record. Operating a safe and secure job site is one of our core values, and we take this responsibility very seriously. Our goal is zero accidents!

To help ensure that accidents are the exception rather than the rule, SCHAEFER utilizes an Incident Protection Plan (IPP). The program begins with a pre-construction safety review in which our Safety Director, the job site foreman and all sub-contractors meet to identify potential safety issues with a given project. Each job site then maintains a written copy of our Standard Safety Program, as well as a detailed description of the potential issues identified during the safety review, plus the IPP plan for avoiding accident or injury.

At SCHAEFER, we’re proud of our safety record. You can rest assured all steps will be taken to make your project a safe one. Our safety policy addresses:

– Loss Control Program – Drug & Alcohol Policy – Hazard Communications – Personal Protection Equipment – Tool Box Talks

– Respiratory Procedures – Fire Prevention – Excavation – Fall Protection – Scaffolding

– Blood Born Pathogens Training – Specific Job Site Safety Rules – Workers Compensation Program – Emergency Phone Numbers – Emergency Action Plans

SCHAEFER employs a third party consultant (J.V. Resources) to advise us on matters relating to safety. J.V. Resources visits each of our job sites and provides written safety reports to our management team.
