Linde-Griffith Construction

Safety

Linde-Griffith Construction Co. is committed to providing our team with a work environment ensuring their personal health and safety and we aim to remove any risks to the health, safety, and welfare of all workers, contractors, and visitors. The Linde-Griffith workforce has always been our greatest resource and we are committed to providing our team an injury-and incident-free workplace, emphasizing this with a zero tolerance for any safety infractions. In conjunction with this, management has provided our teams with the training, tools, and guidance to perform every task, job, and project without incident.

At Linde-Griffith, safety starts from an employee’s first day with a thorough orientation. Every employee is instructed in our safety policies and procedures. Our Director of Safety makes sure each new employee understands what is expected of him/her on a Linde-Griffith project; safety ALWAYS comes first.

An injury-and accident-free workplace is our goal and through Linde-Griffith’s overall safety initiatives and the complete and active participation by everyone, every day, on every job, we can accomplish this task.
