Safety engineering began with an emphasis on machine guarding and those principles hold true today. We apply our knowledge and experience of causation to protection and prevention. We are experienced in industrial safety programming and accident prevention techniques and have provided accident investigation expertise and analysis for a wide range of industrial applications. We have experience in industrial facility design, fabrication, installation, and verification. It is the responsibility of general contractors to oversee and coordinate the safety of their contractors and subcontractors to assure the safety of all persons on their jobsite.
People fall from heights such as ladders, stairs, or work platforms.
Slips, trips and falls to the same level are also a frequent occurrence. Many factors affect the causes of falls and many of them can be reasonably controlled. The National Safety Council has published in its yearly Accident Facts publication for many years the fact that falls are the leading cause of deaths and serious injuries in the U.S. when motor vehicle accidents are excluded. Falls cause injury to people at home, at work, or in public places. We believe that application of a proper understanding of the basic fundamentals of the causes of falls will lead designers, architects, engineers and facility managers and employers to the necessary place to be able to prevent or minimize the effects of most falls whether it was a slip and fall on a walking surface, a trip over an obscure single step, a fall on stairs or a fall from elevation.
