Holliston, MA – Wayne J. Griffin Electric, Inc. (Griffin Electric) announced it participated in this year’s Construction Safety Week, an annual initiative that aims to refocus and re-energize efforts to eliminate incidents on jobsites with the goal of building a safer, stronger industry.
In an effort to emphasize ladder safety and fall protection, safety managers made their way to each of the company’s projects throughout its five regions to speak to employees and share information about these subjects to keep them safe. In further recognition of the industry-wide event, the company raffled-off a series of gift cards and provided safety T-shirts for its team members, while forepersons also treated their crew members to a lunch to show appreciation for all their hard work.
Representatives of the firm say the importance of safety is stressed daily at Griffin Electric, and its proactive approach to safety extends to the earliest phases of a project. Safety managers work closely with forepersons and complete a preconstruction safety start-up as well as conduct thorough, regular walk-throughs of each project across the company’s five regions to identify and fix potential hazards. Ongoing training and educational opportunities are also regularly offered to employees as part of Griffin Electric’s comprehensive safety program.
