At Nedlaw Roofing Limited safety is forefront in all aspects of our business. All employees of the company focus on Health and Safety in all aspects of their day to day activities, ensuring compliance with all applicable safety laws, codes and issues. Project Managers are responsible for the safe set-up of each job, prior to the job starting, and for daily job site safety inspections.

We currently put all our staff, prior to the employee starting, through a worker orientation session that covers the basic safety requirements of our industry. Topics covered include fall protection, hoist safety, ladder safety, as well as kettle and other equipment operating safety. In addition to this training, we hold monthly safety meetings, rain day safety talks, and ongoing equipment training which all of our employees must attend. Our employees are also trained in WHIMIS, first aid and in the proper use of propane for our industry.

Our company has a Joint Health and Safety Committee to assist in the expedient resolution of any safety complaint.

The Construction Safety Association recently conducted a full safety audit of our company. This consisted of an internal audit of our safety records, followed by several site audits. We are delighted to say that the result of these combined audits was a score of 97%. Our most recent CAD-7 ratings from WSIB have resulted in substantial refunds due to our favorable safety record.

In June 2001 Nedlaw Roofing was presented with the highest award for safety achievements in our industry. The Frequency Index Award was presented at the Ontario Industrial Roofing Contractors Association annual meeting. The award represented the best safety record as determined by the Construction Safety Association of Ontario for contractors with over 200,000 man hours for the period 1998 - 1999.

We are proud of our efforts as we strive to make Nedlaw the safety leader in our industry.
