[Together 💛 ] Fostering a culture of safety each and every day is a top priority!💪 Hard hats, gloves, ear protection, high-visibility work clothes and safety shoes are non-negotiables on our worksites! Our employees always stay well equipped in the field because we care about our teams as much as our projects. PPE is the first step toward ensuring everyone’s health and safety. We are responsible for each other, and are committed to providing working conditions for all our employees in which risks are kept to a minimum. Day in and day out, we work to prevent accidents. We’ve formalized this objective in Colas' global “One Safety - Goal Zero” cultural change initiative. This program aims to promote autonomy, understanding of risks and the development of safe behaviors, through training provided by internal coaches and promoters. Each year, a focus on risk prevention also takes place during the Group's Safety Week. Find out more 👉https://lnkd.in/gYqy8-Wf #Safety #PPE #ColasCares
