HALL Contracting Corporation is proud of the record it has achieved over the years concerning the safety and health of our employees. Providing a safe working environment with strict enforcement of sound safety procedures is paramount.

We are gratified that our accident/injury incidence rate is below the national average for our industry and that our experience modification rate is below the standard of 1.0. These results, however, have not deterred HALL in its daily efforts to continue to improve on each of these measurements.

For us, the key to success is the commitment by all levels of management to improving the safety processes, the implementation of a substance abuse testing program, and the on-going training of all personnel. As part of our corporate procedures, safety meetings are conducted weekly by superintendents and daily training and monitoring in the field is supported by our supervisors. Quarterly education of all HALL field management is performed to enhance selected work practices or safety requirements.

Superintendents with the best safety records each year are rewarded with recognition and bonuses. Over $30,000 is awarded annually. Our field employees are the vital link to HALL's safety program, and as such, receive quarterly safety awards and bonuses for accident-free performance.

Safety is important to our customers--to us--and to the job.
