About us
Job-Site Safety Institute (JSI) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to conducting safety research for residential and commercial job-sites. We serve as a research center where educational institutions and industry leaders collaborate and exchange ideas to increase awareness of the inherent dangers of a construction site. The research conducted through JSI grants will produce studies that guide safety practices, set new standards, and influence worker behavior on job-sites.

This year, we celebrate 10 years of JSI. Each month, we'll look back at a project funded by JSI that has helped us move closer to our goal of reducing injuries and eliminating fatalities on the job-site. Following a fatal accident on a job-site, JSI joined forces with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health to fund research that would help improve the design of Mast Climbing Work Platforms.
