Richard Smith has always had a strong commitment to providing a safe work environment for his staff, subcontractors and clients.
It starts at the hiring stage with drug screening and is practiced daily through clear
policies and procedures, training, safety talks, the operation of new and well-maintained equipment and frequent in-house safety inspections.
Many of our in-house policies and procedures are over and above those outlined in the OSHA guidelines and we have a mod ratio and lost days ratio to prove it.
Our substance abuse policy requires pre-employment, post-accident, random and suspicion drug and alcohol testing.
Safety is an investment and our extensive training has paid off in unmeasurable returns.
Careful attention to detail
Our commitment to safety goes beyond required training and is evidenced by the quality and condition of our equipment, thoroughness of daily equipment and vehicle inspection
sheets, and production that is created in the field because of the confidence our staff has in their work environment.

Education above and beyond
Safety training isn't the only training we offer our staff. Scheduling and CPM, Project Management, Erosion and Sediment measures, OSHA and General Supervision are just a few of the classes that our staff has taken advantage of and our clients have benefitted from.
