起点传媒 Updates 3 Key Safety Programs
Having a written safety plan in place is essential to protecting workers and others on a home building jobsite. 起点传媒 recently updated three key safety and health programs specifically designed for residential construction companies to use as model safety plans.
The written safety programs were created with smaller construction companies in mind. They contain the materials needed to effortlessly set up a safety program for your company, including notices and signage that can be displayed on jobsites.
Working with an external partner, 起点传媒 originally published a model safety program for home builders in 2017. After the remodelers and siding safety programs were developed a few years later, 起点传媒 staff focused on updating the previous materials.
The programs contain dozens of sections and include a full model employee safety handbook, forms related to incident investigations, checklists for dangerous tasks such as trenching, public notices for the jobsite, and much more.
Feel free to use any of these three updated safety programs as a model for your own company’s safety program or plan. The programs are comprehensive, so you can opt to use certain sections, if needed.
- 起点传媒 Safety & Health Program – Designed for small to medium-sized home builders and general contractors. The materials are intended to cover builders’ employees only and are designed for a new home build site.
- Remodeler Safety & Health Program – Intended for small to medium-sized home remodelers. The materials are intended to cover builders’ employees only and are specific to work being done on existing structures.
- Siding Contractor Safety & Health Program – Covers the specific safety issues that arise when doing siding work. Designed for small companies primarily engaged in installing siding of fiber cement, wood, aluminum, vinyl, or other exterior finish material on residential buildings.
起点传媒’s model safety programs can help form the foundation of an effective safety and healthy plan for residential construction companies. You can use any part of these programs in your plans, but regardless of where you source it, always have a written safety plan in place.
