PROTECTION YOU CAN COUNT ON

Safety

At Cecchini Group, safety is our top priority on all projects, and we are committed to providing the highest level of corporate due diligence protection for our staff, clients, and consultants. Our workplace health and safety track record is excellent, and we take pride in delivering projects safely, exceeding industry best practices.

Throughout the construction process, we will have a full-time safety officer on site, and a fully equipped first aid station. Safety orientations are conducted for all new employees and workers, and all workers are required to wear CSA-approved work gear (including hard hats, safety boots, protective eyewear, and high visibility vests) at all times.

Additionally, we work with a third-party health and safety group, Tickner Safety, to ensure that all our projects comply with applicable safety laws and to help implement our Health and Safety program.

Safety Processes

The following is a list of processes followed by the on-site Cecchini safety representative, as defined within our safety policy:
  • Pre-Job Safety

Evaluate project hazards specific to the environmental conditions in which the project is to take place. Produce a written document that describes the inherent hazards associated with the project and detail the proactive strategies to be implemented to ensure all hazards and liabilities are minimized.

  • Hazard Analysis

Implement and continuously manage daily JHAs to ensure trades evaluate the risks associated with their daily tasks and describe intended control measures to reduce the risks.

  • Equipment

Proactively manage documentation to ensure all supplied equipment meets regulatory standards and inspections.

  • Traffic Planning

In line with the site-specific engineered plans, assess the risks related to the general public, the roadway, site access, and egress. We then develop, implement, and train necessary staff and employees on traffic manage- ment and pedestrian safety plan.

  • Safe Procedures

For higher risk work, develop SWPs, either by trade or the safety manager, that describe the step-by-step process on how the party(s) will proceed with the work and the safety mechanisms that will be implemented.

  • Permits

Reduce sub-trade risk through management control methods such as hot work permits, after hours work permits, confined space permits, and scaffold tag permits.

  • Risk Prevention

Weekly critical action planning to identify any critical actions (processes or tasks that are outside the normal scope of work) to occur during the week. Assess the level of risk associated with said tasks and determine mitigation strategies to reduce the risk.

  • Audit Tools

Continuously evaluate sub-trade work by having the site superintendent audit the site using Cecchini’s Health and Safety Site Inspection Report. This enables safety management personnel to implement prevention strategies before serious injuries or incidents occur.

  • Manage WSIB

Investigate, evaluate, and continuously manage employee injuries and WSIB cases, as per the defined processes and procedures within the Cecchini Group safety policy, thereby maintaining WSIB premiums at a minimum.
