For LCS Constructors, Inc. safety is at the forefront of each project. And, while it is the responsibility of management to enforce and ensure that safety procedures are followed, it is essentially the responsibility of each employee to embrace safety practices and make them part of their daily routine.

LCS takes safety seriously and remains committed to safe work habits and safe work environments. Safety is a way of life and there are no short cuts; safety is part of our routine and this routine created a cultural safety within our company. We employee safety officers, provide safety education programs, perform weekly safety meetings and remain current on the latest safety regulations.

Serious About on the Job Safety

Specializing and working in the laboratory and technical facility industry can present many dangers and challenges. Proper use of personal protective safety equipment, knowledge of OSHA and ANSI safety regulations and keeping a tidy work area are key elements to ensuring everyone’s safety.

Our superintendents are directly responsible for safety on their job sites; they are fully authorized to immediately dismiss any workers or visitors regardless of whether they are an LCS employee, subcontractor, or a facility owner, if they fail to follow proper safety protocol. And, in a worse case scenario, it could be necessary for a superintendent to stop all work on a job site until unsafe conditions are corrected.

Each project manager is responsible for training LCS field personnel in safety and insist safety guidelines be followed. They monitor safety each day to ensure that safety policies are enforced.

Weekly field meetings are performed which include the discussion of job site safety. Each employee is asked to continually evaluate job sites and inform personnel of the importance of safety. Safety is an individual effort that creates a team of safe employees. On the job safety is taken seriously, and for LCS, safety is our number one concern.
