The importance of safety in our industry cannot be emphasized enough. It cannot be assumed that all companies in the industry mirror best-practice when it comes to safety standards. S.J. Louis does not just implement safety standards and meet safety regulations, we put SAFETY FIRST. Assuring a safe environment for our employees and customers comes above all things.

In fact, S.J. Louis is building a culture of safety. It is our mission to create a working community in which every employee, new and seasoned, take responsibility to model, implement, and enforce all safety guidelines. Not only do our workers stand-out on-site in their SAFETY FIRST garments, but you will also notice a difference in their level of training. All S.J. Louis employees are Competent Person Trained. Whereas most companies only certify their foremen, S.J. Louis certifies all field employees. As a training company, we offer bi-lingual training opportunities for our Spanish and English speaking employees. We provide a full-time on-site translator as well as English and Spanish translations for our safety manuals and handbooks. Additionally, our safety staff offers weekly employee-led meetings on safety related topics as well as yearly company safety meetings.

S.J. Louis goes out of their way to protect every employee. In fact, in an effort to eliminate new-hire injuries, all new employees are required to wear a neon-green hardhat for their first 90 days on-site. The neon hat is a reminder to veteran employees that a new employee is on-site and that it is everyone's responsibility to ensure safety. Additionally, being a large national company, S.J. Louis has the capability of providing new and often state-of-the-art equipment which not only guarantees efficiency and quality, but also aides in keeping our employees safe.

We value our employees' dedication to our SAFETY FIRST culture and we thank them with yearly incentives. We compensate our employees very well for both individual and overall team results. We reward our Teams with company garments, gift-certificates and cash allowances when safety standards are met. Our Team leader's year-end bonus is based on their safety record as well.
