Bold innovations in safety
No other construction firm is more committed to safety. Boldt's process-oriented approach to safety involves comprehensive training and a thorough grounding in our philosophies regarding safe behavior, including employee practices, subcontractor prequalification, job-site visitor protection and more. This commitment has more than paid off. Over the last decade alone, lost-time incidence rates have remained an average of 35 to 60 percent below national averages for construction firms, a record of which we are extremely proud. BoldThinking® safety initiatives we've undertaken:
- "Safety: A Way of Life": an all-encompassing program designed to educate employees on the importance of safety on the job
- Self-Insurance: remaining one of the nation's few contractors allowed to self-insure
- Dedicated safety team: our industrial-safety experts regularly visit job sites to assess procedures and compliance
- Written and hands-on testing and evaluation: project managers and coordinators, superintendents, and foremen are trained to teach employees safe behavior
- Ongoing hazard assessment: we review safety best practices and measure our adherence to those practices
