TRAINING

Safety Leadership 10

To keep our employees, trade partners, and clients safe, Burke continuously provides the highest quality training for project teams. All employees are equipped with the most up-to-date information and necessary resources to provide a safe work environment at all jobsites.

 

  • All project team members must be OSHA 30 certified and are trained to identify existing and predictable hazards. We empower our team members to mitigate safety risks and eliminate all conditions and behaviors that cause danger to any jobsite personnel.
  • Before the start of every Burke project, our team holds a site-specific safety orientation which all project employees and trade partners are required to attend.
  • Our safety efforts are led by a team with OSHA 500 certifications and supported by the entire executive team, because at Burke, safety is everybody’s business. We work day in and day out to resolve conflicts through proven systematic safety techniques and practices that serve best interest of all team members’ health and well-being.
COLLABORATION

Safety Leadership 11

Our project teams work relentlessly on and off site to ensure the safety of all parties involved. Burke’s safety committee requires all staff to complete various safety hazard identification and elimination tasks on all of our jobsites. These tasks are led by the project superintendent and involve every team member present.

 

  • Daily Job Hazard Analyses are conducted at the start of each shift which allow team members to identify risk and eliminate all possible jobsite hazards prior to the beginning of their work day.
  • Tool Box Talks are held regularly at each project site. During these meetings, team members can discuss potential hazards and solutions to eliminate all risk on a recurring basis.
  • Regular project safety walks and project safety meetings are held to assist superintendents and their team members identify safety hazards as well as best practices that can be implemented to mitigate and eliminate risks.
INNOVATION

Safety Leadership 12

With the help of our Virtual Design & Construction team, we implement the use of drones in our safety management program. Our drone pilots capture images of a project site prior to the start of construction, allowing the project team to draft a safety plan according to site specific logistics prior to the start of construction. This technique decreases the number of potential hazards on a job site.

A STRONG SAFETY CULTURE

PRACTICE SAFETY — THEY ARE ALL COUNTING ON US

At the end of the day our goal is: zero harm. Our objective is: we all go home without injury or illness. Our families, our friends, and our Company depend on us.
