Watertown, MA – Recently, at construction offices and job sites all across the country, the A/E/C community took time to proactively communicate the importance of safety. The solidarity and unified message communicated by those participating in Safety Week 2015 set a powerful example and provides a platform for reminding the industry of its responsibility to promote safety.
This year, as part of Safety Week 2015, Cannistraro launched its own custom-built Safety App to help personnel better manage safety initiatives in the field.
Designed specifically for use on the iPad, foremen and project managers will have instant access to all Toolbox Talks, Safety Communications, Job Hazard Analysis, Pre-task Planning, and other forms utilized as part of the company’s Environmental Health and Safety Programs.
Additionally, employees across Greater Boston participated in Safety Week activities ranging from safety awareness luncheons to safety breaks, while company leaders continued their regular site visits and safety walks that were instituted during Safety Week last year.

Cannistraro is proud of the positive safety culture that has developed since Safety Week 2014, and sees the visible results in its decreased injury rates and strong safety ratings (e.g. ISNet World, ConstructSecure and an Experienced Modification Rate). Though the company is eager to join its clients in collaborative Safety Week programs, and launch some of its own, the underlying message of the week will continue to be reinforced throughout the year with new safety training opportunities, ongoing communication and continuous improvement.
