In a recent SCI internal newsletter, General Counsel Anna Lucas and Development Director Zac West share a vital four-part strategy for risk management.

The secret? It all starts with proper planning.

Keep yourself and others safe on the jobsite (and elsewhere) by:  

• taking time to identify potential danger
• making a plan for lessening risk
• implementing your strategy
• being prepared to respond in the event of an accident

Mistakes tend to happen when we are frustrated, distracted, or in a hurry. In the construction industry, shortcuts are not our friend and can be very dangerous to ourselves and our fellow teammates.

Following protocols at all times and recognizing and mitigating risks are critical components of day-to-day workplace safety.
