Schwickert 5 Point Safety Policy

Schwickert's has developed and implemented one of the most comprehensive safety and health programs in the construction industry. This program is highlighted and initiated by the Schwickert Five Point Safety Policy statement, which develops both responsibility and accountability for safety performance. The statement also maintains a philosophy that all employees must be trained to perform their duties. Our policy is outlined as follows:
  • Management is Responsible and Accountable for Safety. Our safety and health program is effective because senior management demands and expects safe performance and objective achievement.

  • Employees will be Trained to Work Safely. All employees—regardless of position—will be trained in their safety responsibilities and proper safe work procedures.

  • Corporate Objectives. Senior management will develop measurable safety objectives that will be used to measure management performance.

  • All Injuries are Preventable. Injuries are the result of hazardous conditions or actions, they are not an inevitable byproduct of construction environments.

  • Audits of the Workplace. Each of our worksites is audited by a management team to ensure compliance with safety programs and procedures. These audits provide a timely and proactive element recognizing deficiencies and resolving those issues before they become a safety hazard.
