Safety first, always. In our businesses, safety and health cannot simply be words on paper or activities driven by regulations. The safety, health and well-being of our employees, our customers and all those who come in contact with our work is the first consideration. It remains a primary cornerstone of the overall business strategy and expectations throughout our companies.

Oldcastle Materials has one of the best safety records in the industry, which our employees achieve through a deep sense of responsibility for their own safety and the safety of others. Support and leadership from our management team, along with comprehensive training and a companywide commitment to eliminate injuries and accidents, have made safety and health a shared value throughout our entire organization. Our diligence has been recognized with an array of regional and national safety achievement awards.

We continue to implement safety initiatives at many of our companies, seeking to align capability, environment and performance in order to create the perfect atmosphere for eliminating injuries and accidents. The primary drivers of this process are (1) management direction, commitment and leadership and (2) employee involvement and ownership. We believe this model will enhance safety performance not only at individual workplaces but also across the entire organization.

The capable and talented professionals on our Safety Best Practice Group recognize that sharing successes, failures, and experiences capitalizes on the synergies between companies to benefit the whole organization. As we benchmark each other and our industry peers, we have found that Oldcastle Materials compares very favorably and is considered an industry leader. Many of our safety professionals are involved in local, state, or national safety and health organizations and committees and have been recognized for their work.
