Continuous Improvement in Safety Practices
Safety is a top priority at Thermal-Tec, and having a strong safety program is crucial for the well-being of their team. Before starting any project, they have detailed discussions with building owners to address their specific needs and concerns. This teamwork helps us meet—and often exceed—the client’s expectations. The ownership team at Thermal-Tec works closely with the site supervisor to assess safety measures, reduce unexpected challenges, and ensure their team is well-prepared.
Daily Safety Practices
Every project starts with a toolbox talk to highlight the importance of safety. After that, an on-site supervisor fills out a daily job safety inspection form, addressing key aspects like hazard identification, emergency contacts, and personal protective equipment. These forms are then returned to the office for documentation and record-keeping, ensuring thoroughness and accountability.
Continuous Monitoring and Inspections
In addition to daily practices, Thermal-Tec takes extra steps to ensure safety and compliance. Company representatives conduct unannounced onsite inspections to uphold safety standards during projects. Furthermore, working with third-party safety administration firms allows for ongoing monitoring and access to updated information, reinforcing the company’s commitment to a strong safety program.
Tracking Leading Indicators
To improve safety protocols, Thermal-Tec tracks key indicators to identify potential hazards early on. This includes toolbox safety talks, substance abuse programs, safety performance evaluations, and setting safety goals. Weekly toolbox discussions keep everyone updated, while a strong substance abuse policy shows the company’s dedication to a safe workplace.
Ongoing Reviews and Improvements
Thermal-Tec promotes a culture of continuous improvement by regularly reviewing its safety program. This involves yearly, quarterly, and monthly assessments to ensure safety measures meet and exceed industry standards. By focusing on proactive strategies and using insights from key indicators, Thermal-Tec strives to be one of the safest workplaces in the industry, ensuring all employees return home safely to their families every day.
