SAFETY AND COMPLIANCE CONSULTANTS IN COMMERCIAL CONSTRUCTION
There is a major need for proper safety protocol on any type of jobsite, and the construction industry is certainly no exception. With such physical work, there is no room for mistakes — especially if your workers aren’t appropriately protected from the risks included in their laborious tasks. Construction work has a higher fatality rate than the average American occupation, which is why OSHA regulations can be justifiably stricter for the construction industry.
At OECS, we perform audits, make sure your job site is compliant, train employees and can offer a wide variety of other services custom to your situation. Hiring a safety consulting company will pay for itself through fewer workers comp claims and more days on the job.

Build a Better Safety Plan
If you’re in charge of safety at a construction site, there are many factors you need to take into consideration that you wouldn’t find at other types of businesses. Unfortunately, the fatality rate in commercial construction is higher than in other industries. It’s important to take a proactive approach to your safety goals in order to stop costly mishaps before they occur.
Some of the most common risks at a commercial construction site include:
- Falls
- Collapsing building components
- Repetitive motion injuries
- Electric shocks
- Burns
- Hearing damage
- Heat strokes
