OSHA

Now for the down side.

Small business in the construction industry, Frisbee Painting is very concerned with safety. Frisbee Painting certainly wants all of our employees to return home each night safe and with a profit for the day.

The things I learned in the 10 hour OSHA course yesterday.

1) OSHA on average issues 2.7 citations per visit.

2) OSHA has a new goal to issue 5 citations per visit.

3) OSHA has no part of the agency designed to help businesses achieve compliance.

4) Anything discussed yesterday concerning safety was just good common sense.

5) Many safety issues on a construction site are, as you can imagine, subjective.

6) OSHA will easily be able to achieve 5 citations per visit.

Does this strike anyone else as the wrong method?

In an continuing effort to keep up with the changes in regulations, and improve the service we offer our customers all of our foremen have just returned from a 10 hour OSHA training class for safety, all of our foremen have completed this now.

Not only will our customers receive better service, but we hope to continue our record of no on the job injuries!!

Safety Safety Safety

As construction workers it is very important to be safety conscious. Frisbee Painting Inc has decided as of tomorrow all of our foremen will be OSHA certified. This is becoming the standard on commercial jobs, and we have decided to make it a priority on residential jobs as well.
