Safety Policy

Making A Difference
At IWP, we recognize that accidents should be unusual events and that most of them are preventable. Our goal continues to be ZERO ACCIDENTS. Our strong written policy and management leadership do make a difference!

Good Business
At IWP we believe that the prevention of accidents is both our moral obligation and good business. We recognize that the protection of our employees, property, the public and the environment are essential to the efficient and successful completion of every construction project we undertake.

It's How We Work
Accident prevention is a line management responsibility. That responsibility is shared at every level of our organization, from the President through to our craft work force. Managers, supervisors and employees are all trained to identify and correct unsafe conditions and more importantly unsafe work practices. Our project management teams administer our Accident Prevention Program at the project level, with the support and oversight of safety professionals.

We emphasize safety on our projects with the same vigor as quality, morale, cost, schedule, and production. Safety is not something we do in addition to the work. It’s how we do the work.

Enforce has an established worker safety and health program that includes formal training in construction safety, tracking and formalized reporting. Corporately, this program has full time oversight and management of IWP Safety Professional Esteban Infante. In addition, each Branch and most large projects, have a Safety Manager reporting directly to the Profit Center Manager.

IWP Product’s safety policy is based on the belief that every working person is entitled to a safe and healthful place to work. We recognize our responsibility for the physical well being of our employees as established in our core values; and federal and state regulations. We further recognize the vital role that effective accident prevention measures play in an efficiently run project. Our managers and supervisors are responsible and accountable for the implementation of safe work procedures and maintenance of a job site free from hazards that would endanger people or property. Support of this objective is a condition of employment.
