Health and Safety Program

METAL-FAB’s safety program includes twelve categories covering all bases of our operations. Our program includes specific directives for safety policies, hazard assessment and controls, and basic safety rules for our staff. We also focus on workplace safety inspections of our shop and field sites. We investigate incidents and near misses whenever such events occur. The company compliments this with a full maintenance program of our tools and equipment.



We also have an active health and safety committee that meets regularly to review all aspects of our safety program to ensure our high standards for safety are maintained. We also have directives for emergency planning, first-aid requirements and we maintain comprehensive statistics of our past safety performance. Training is the core of our safety program. All staff, including management and administration, receive training specific to their tasks. An extensive training matrix documents and coordinates current and future training requirements. Attributes of our quality program are also woven into our training matrix to ensure our people have the knowledge to do the job correctly the first time. Our commitment to training is outlined in our company Health & Safety Policy
