A Culture of Safety

At Southview Design, we work hard to keep our people safe.

Education

Education about hidden hazards and strategies for preventing injury and illness is ongoing, not one-and-done. Through a series of monthly meetings, workers have opportunities to learn key safety concepts and interact with leadership to address their safety concerns.

These meetings give workers a voice in their safety and an opportunity to contribute to the development of safety procedures and practices, so they are “street ready” for implementation.

Safety Audits

We continuously audit safety policies and processes in the field. These audits help us maintain the highest standards of safety and walk our talk.

24/7/365

Safety "off the clock" matters. In 2023, the company has trained 20 workers on CPR/First Aid/AED with the goal of training every front-line field supervisor by the end of 2024. We have invested in emergency roadside kits for personal vehicles, home first aid kits, and CO detectors for workers to take home.

Continuous Communication

Digital processes streamline communication and support ongoing safety awareness and a world-class safety culture. From the front line to the leadership team, everyone has easy access to information and can provide feedback to affect change.

Monthly Safety meetings keep everyone in the loop.
