Safety
Excavating and trenching are among the most hazardous of construction operations. The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) defines an excavation as any man-made cut, cavity, trench, or depression in the earth’s surface formed by earth removal. OSHA also defines a trench as a narrow underground excavation that is deeper than it is wide, and is no wider than 15 feet (4.5 meters).
Many construction companies tackle safety, quality, and productivity improvements separately. At Winninger Excavating, Inc. we understand that without our employees we are nothing. That is why we are committed to making safety a paramount part of our daily routine. We are committed to meeting or exceeding industry standards and closely monitor safety trends in order to stay up with the always changing market. We achieve this through requiring our workers to have the latest OSHA safety certifications, conducting tool box talks, and enforcing zero tolerance for unsafe working conditions. Our goal at Winninger Excavating, Inc. is to be a leader in safety, have zero incidents, and to send our workers home safe every day!
