The Morse-Safe Program
Our safety department is responsible for implementing the Morse-Safe program throughout The Morse Group of Companies.
The Morse-Safe program stresses four key steps to safe operations:
Identify & Plan
- Identify activities that cause a majority of workplace accidents.
- Investigate & highlight issues that routinely cause workplace accidents on multiple job sites
- Develop safe and preventative work practices to alleviate the cause of these incidents
Communicate
- Conduct regular visits to our job sites for safety meetings (actual visit cycle is dependent upon job size and manpower)
- Perform routine site inspections to ensure safe work practices
- Train project managers, engineers and foremen in safe work practices and highlight traditionally 'unsafe' behavior or tasks on job sites
- Develop guides for employees in the office and on job sites
- Regularly report to all employees on safety record and progress
Report & Track
- Ensure proper reporting of all incidents (near misses and accidents)
- Develop historical performance management data to measure performance on key expectations
- Provide tools for management to reinforce the preventative approach to safety and reward positive results
Improve
- Refine existing programs and policies to ensure workplace safety
- Reinforce behavior that meets or exceeds safety expectations
