THS Constructors puts “Safety First” and has a written safety program that fully complies with all OSHA requirements for safe work practices. This program is strictly enforced at THS Constructors – managed job sites with each THS person assigned to the job site having personal responsibility for monitoring safety. Our approach to job site safety focuses on three primary areas:
Prevention
- Corporate safety program

- Mandatory drug testing
- Weekly safety gang box meetings
- Subcontractor safety program
- Hazardous Communications program (HAZCOM)
- We invite courteous OSHA inspections
- Culture expectation of zero accidents
- Insurance underwriter perform site inspections
- All Superintendents have completed OSHA 30 training
- All field labor has completed OHSA 10 training
Continuing Education
