Accident prevention takes precedence!
The safety and health of each employee and visitor are of paramount importance in our operations. The prevention of occupational injuries and illness is of such consequence that it is given precedence over productivity, expediency or shortcuts whenever necessary. A work safe incentive program is also in place to encourage safe working practices and includes monthly and yearly “accident-free” awards. Venture has been a direct TEXO member for 20 years, and work collectively to maintain an efficient safety and training program.
These include:
- Monthly in-house safety meetings are held with all field employees to discuss major topics such as hazardous communication, fall protection and electrical safety.
- All new employees go through a company safety orientation upon being hired. This consists of training for specific safety practices that the company has implemented as well as training in all required OSHA safety topics including personal protective equipment, ladder safety and OSHA standards compliance.
- Pre site meeting assessments to cover job specific hazards and procedures
- Mandatory 30 Hour OSHA outreach and CPR/First Aid/AED training for all lead mechanics
- Pre employment, random, and post-accident drug screening
- Strict accident investigation and review policy for all recordable injuries
