    Residential Construction Safety Checklist Considerations

    Residential construction projects come with unique safety responsibilities. Everyone who works at a construction site needs to be aware of the risks involved and take precautions to limit the chances of an accident. When safety becomes a team effort, it changes the culture of a company. Employees begin to take precautions without being reminded, which can prevent some of the most common worksite injuries that result from improper:

    • Nail gun usage
    • Lifting techniques
    • Exposure to dust
    • Handling of electrical components
    • Fall protection
    • Fire protection
    • Hearing protection
    • Many other dangerous activities

    Satellite Shelters’ commitment to safety has endured for decades. We’re proud of this but also realized that in order to get to the next level, we needed the right partner.

    Chris Peterson Satellite Shelters Plymouth, MN

    OECS has been a huge assistance in helping us provide useful, current, relevant training topics that are somewhat tailored to our work crew and needs. Ari Cook keeps each training session engaging and fun by getting our employees involved. When available, he will add in examples from our facility audits to connect the topics directly to our workspaces to encourage greater discussion about improvements that can be made and the positive things that are being done already. We believe the partnership we have with OECS has helped us maintain a low incident and injury rate within our facility as well as greatly assisted with staying current on OSHA/WSI rules. Their assistance is a vital part of our WSI safety programs each year and we look forward to continuing our relationship in the years to come.
