At the end of each and every day, the most important thing is that we are all able to make it home safely. The Blue Star family is fully committed to helping not only ourselves, but everyone within our family and others working around us to make it home safely. Our goal is not to reduce the number of unplanned occurrences and accidents; it is to eliminate them altogether.
Our primary goals:
Ensure compliance with Federal and Local and project specific health and safety requirements and standards
Eliminate personal injury, illness and property damage losses
Thoroughly investigate any incident that should occur to ensure that the same accident does not occur again
How we achieve these goals:
Pre-construction planning and coordination meetings
Regular safety training for all employees
Weekly Jobsite safety meetings
Weekly safety audits of each project
Blue Star, Inc. takes pride in our low EMR of 0.89, which is a result of safety preparedness before accidents occur on the jobsite. While our EMR is lower than the average, it is not 0.00. Because we are striving to reach ZERO incidents, Blue Star is implementing a new safety policy companywide. Safety is not only the responsibility of our Safety Managers, but of each and every employee, which is why we are setting a goal to have every employee that steps foot onsite trained with a minimum of the following:
Pre-employment Safety Orientation
New Hire Training – HAZCOM, PPE, Respiratory Protection, Etc.
Focus FOUR Training – Fall protection, Caught In, Struck By or Electrical Safety
First Aid/CPR Training
Respiratory Training
