Construction / Contractors

Five of the Top Ten Minnesota OSHA Citations in 2006 Related to Fall Protection

Is your construction or contractor insurance agent consulting on-site to protect your workers?

Fall protection is a tough issue. Site conditions are always changing and you don’t always know which sub-contractors put safety first or train their employees in risk avoidance – until it’s too late.

Construction risk management means pre-planning your jobs and job sites for safety
In addition to ensuring you have the construction insurance protection you need, RJF works on-site with contractors to pre-plan, train workers and manage jobs to ensure workers and sub-contractors are operating safely. Sometimes this involves different use of existing equipment. Sometimes it means new equipment that can be adapted to a variety of sites. In any case, safety must be built into the job. RJF knows how to help, and will do so in a cost-effective way.

Fall and Accident prevention requires more than one approach
Our construction risk management team
uses a combination of trade-specific safety training, pre-employment testing and screening, or past claims and citation analysis to help prevent future accidents. That’s the kind of risk management that minimizes worker's compensation claims, reduces insurance premiums, and eliminates OSHA citations.

Our programs and services designed specifically for construction firms and contractors are very effective for accident reduction in your industry:
  • Pre-employment testing and screening
  • Safety programs that are trade-specific and company-specific
  • 10-hour OSHA training course

 This is just a sampling of the services we offer for construction firms.
