SAFETY

Above All Else

Health and safety are our first considerations in the operation of our business and execution of our projects. We work in challenging terrain, in complex environments, with heavy equipment, and with potentially dangerous systems. We know the risks our work presents, and we take a holistic approach to ensuring that safety is always our highest priority.
Empowerment Through Training

We provide education, up-to-date training, and the latest resources and technology to integrate safety into our everyday operations. Our management team promotes and influences safe behavior and adherence to strict safety program protocols that meet federal, state, and local regulations.

Engagement Through Feedback

Our operations and safety personnel work together as one team to find practical, economic solutions to a project’s safety concerns. We thoroughly consider employee recommendations to improve health and safety conditions and provide financial resources to correct unsafe conditions.

SAFETY

Our Safety Program

We maintain a comprehensive Health and Safety Program addressing all aspects of the work we do. We update it as we learn, as our industry evolves, and as regulations change. We commit to preventing damage, injury, or loss to our employees and anyone on our jobsites. The four tenets of our safety program are:

Protect the Worker

We ensure that all team members have the right training, tools, equipment, resources, and support to ensure a safe environment.

JR Merit was the prime general contractor for the Condit dam decommissioning project.

Protect the Environment

We take every precaution to avoid or mitigate any potential impact at, or within, the immediate vicinity of our job site.

Protect the Customer

We take a proactive approach to ensure that we protect the health and well-being, property, and good name of our customers.

Protect the Company

We operate in a compliant and ethical manner at all times. We ensure that our actions always reflect our company values and vision.

They are good at looking at the job for any safety concerns and then bringing those concerns forward. They work closely with me and the environmental health and safety group here.
