Construction Safety Management Process

A Proven, Comprehensive Framework for Managing Safety on Your Sites.

Our exclusive Contractor Safety Management Process is a powerful, effective approach for companies that are committed to creating and maintaining safe, incident-free construction sites.

Building a Culture of Safety

CSMP goes beyond mere compliance to provide oversight of every facet of safety management on your jobsites. We work with you to develop a culture of safety, educating everyone about the importance of rules, monitoring performance, and continuously improving all activities.

Protecting Everyone - Especially You
CSMP is a comprehensive process that provides oversight of everyone on your site – including your team, your contractors, and their subcontractors. Just as important, it protects and strengthens your reputation within the contracting community and among the general public.

Having a comprehensive program assures OSHA and local regulators that you take safety seriously. It can reduce your liability exposure and bolster your defense if litigation occurs. And when workers feel safer, they’re more efficient and productive.

The Cost-effictive Approach to Safety

CSMP addresses the concerns of insurers, leading to lower costs. In addition, CSMP includes our management services and all staffing for your safety needs, eliminating hiring, salary and benefit costs.

Over the past ten years, we have managed safety programs for more than $1 billion in construction projects. For one pharmaceutical company alone, working with us reduced insurance costs by millions of dollars. At the inception of our program, that company’s contractor injury loss per hour worked ran as high as $0.75. As our program matured, that loss dropped as low as $0.01 per hour in some periods, with an average of $0.03/hour.

Expectation and Evaulation
CSMP provides a proven, more effective way to set a clear direction for the safety program, organize your efforts, and provide accountability at every level. Roles and responsibilities for everyone involved the delivery of the project are clearly communicated at the beginning. We approach your project and everyone involved objectively – ensuring safety is our only motivation – and use technology to simplify processes and obtain information quickly.

Addresses All Project Safety Needs
