We are committed to providing both our clients and employees with a safe and secure work environment. Safety and Human Performance training saves lives and helps reduce the severity of injury associated with accidents.
Qualus is committed to providing our employees with the resources and training necessary to reduce or eliminate injuries and health hazards. We have established a program designed to continually improve through routine self-evaluations, training, management support, and employee participation. Through this, our employees understand the importance of a proactive Health, Safety, Security, and Environment culture.
We believe the way to achieve safety excellence is through operational ownership. Operational ownership means that Qualus holds its managers accountable for the integrity of the operations they supervise. Our safety experts support and guide the safety and compliance programs, but the company expects its operations managers to take the lead. We ensure operational commitment through the following components:
As a company founded on quality, it is our duty to apply safety analytics, hazard/risk reduction techniques and governance systems to every aspect of our operations.
All Qualus employees are required to complete the company’s risk-based safety training. We train new and existing employees on the company’s expectations, procedures and tactics for delivering the highest safety results.
Operational ownership requires trust and partnership between leadership and employees. That is why we conduct periodic, anonymous safety perception surveys. These surveys ask employees questions designed to measure their engagement, their views of the safety at their workplace and their impressions of our commitment to safety. We hold operation leaders accountable for results.
We believe that safety improvements should always evolve as we pursue safety excellence. We are committed to the continuous evaluation of opportunities for improvement to ensure that safety measures align with business goals, deliver results, and drive innovation and engagement.
Our approach to auditing focuses on rewarding (rather than punishing) operations for discovering and correcting compliance and process gaps.
Our customers often conduct high-risk operations in challenging environments. We are committed to helping our business partners deliver on their own safety expectations by aligning our programs with theirs. We find that this is the best way to achieve no harm.
We are committed to providing a safe and healthful workplace for our employees and customers as well as observe all job site, state and federal laws and regulations. Our safety team comes from several different industries and has over 25 years of experience in the areas of transmission and distribution, oil and gas, power generation, warehousing, subgrade construction and material handling.
We have established a program designed to continually improve through routine self-evaluations, training, management support and employee participation. As such, our employees understand the importance of a proactive Health, Safety, Security, and Environment culture.
No employee is required to work at a job that he or she feels is unsafe and has the authority to “Stop Work.” Therefore, it is our priority to make every workplace safe by detecting and correcting unsafe working conditions, as well as the discovery and resolution of unsafe work practices.
