Safety as a Matter of Philosophy
The safety of our employees, customers, and the public has been a priority at EPS from our founding. We implemented our Health and Safety program within our organization early on and our focus on improving it is ongoing. EPS Health and Safety Program mandates the following:The prevention of injury on the jobsite and beyond.
- Employee Safety Training meetings and materials. Weekly tailgate safety meetings including topic discussion. Proper protective and safety equipment for employees and jobsite visitors.
- Employee & jobsite visitor compliance with OSHA and EPS workplace safety procedures.
- Effective communication channels and continual coordinated monitoring of safety parameters and effectiveness.
Creating and maintaining a safe workplace.
- We have a firm, zero-tolerance alcohol/drug abuse policy.
- Any employee knowingly engaging in unsafe behavior/activity is subject to disciplinary action.
- Rapid investigation and remediation of any safety-related reported incident.
- A clear recognition of EPS employee's right to a safe, hazard-free workplace.
The EPS Employee Health and Safety Manual is comprehensive in scope and expands on the above key safety points in far greater detail. It is available for examination by any interested party.
