Safety Overview
Safety, Quality, Production... In That Order
At ESS, safety is the first part of every conversation that takes place on our jobsites. It’s the first consideration when planning our operations and the last thing we double-check before getting down to work.
As a company, we invest tremendous amounts of resources into the safety training and protection of our employee-owners. From specialized PPE to advanced safety certification at every level, we make sure every member of our team is fully equipped with the tools needed to return home safely after each day.

Our people are more than just numbers. But these figures are an important part of our safety story at ESS. From our top-tier EMR rating to the money we invest annually in safety training, we’re creating measurable results by working safely every time we step onto the jobsite.
