Safety

The importance of safety within L.F. Jennings culture cannot be overstated. We nurture this concept in all of our employees and reinforce it to a greater extent with appropriate training regimens and vigilant oversight.

L.F. Jennings is committed to operating incident and injury free on each of our projects. We prescribe to the philosophy that safety is the responsibility of everyone in the organization. While the L.F. Jennings safety program is spearheaded by our Director of Safety, it is flowed down through the safety team, project management, field personnel, and subcontractors. Specific training is required for our project superintendents enabling them to identify potential hazards and address issues as they arise. Our project managers visit projects multiple times each week, and they too are vigilantly managing the site for proper safety protocol. Our executive level including Vice President of Field Operations, Vice President of Trades, and General Superintendent also play active roles in monitoring and educating our team on safety protocol.

Safety Control

L.F. Jennings full time safety director, is charged with managing, educating, enforcing and evaluating our program for effectiveness and participation
Every jobsite is different and poses different hazards, as well as different alternatives to abate or mediate the hazards.
L.F. Jennings generates a site specific safety plan for each project.
The subcontractors on the project use our plan as a guide to build their site specific safety plan that will address the specific hazards anticipated within their scope of work.
Each subcontractor will break their work down into specific tasks, identify the hazards associated with those tasks, and what procedures will be necessary to prevent or eliminate those hazards.
