We lead the way
Thinking about safety through a different lens starts at the top: our senior leaders invest time and resources in the most advanced technologies and equipment, but they also empower each employee to feel responsible for creating our safety culture.
We watch out for each other
We want every employee and trade partner to feel that they are part of a common good and cohesive team. We help our teams form stronger relationships with trade partners by emphasizing people and teamwork over processes and checklists.
