At Iron Jack Fence and Supply, we believe that safety is a team effort. Here are some ways we involve our employees in safety improvement initiatives: Open Communication: We encourage our employees to speak up about any safety concerns they may have. This open line of communication allows us to address potential issues before they become problems. Safety Training: Our “Safety First” program is not a one-time thing. We provide ongoing training to keep our employees up-to-date on the latest safety practices and regulations. Safety Committees: We have safety committees made up of employees from different departments. These committees meet regularly to discuss safety performance, review incidents, and suggest improvements. Regular Audits and Drills: During our regular safety audits and drills, we involve all our employees. This not only helps us ensure that our safety measures are effective but also reinforces our commitment to safety among our team members. Rewarding Safe Behavior: We acknowledge and reward employees who consistently follow safety protocols and contribute ideas for improving safety. This encourages everyone to take an active role in maintaining a safe work environment. We understand that our employees are the ones who are on the front lines, installing and maintaining our fencing systems. Their safety is not just about preventing accidents and injuries. It’s about creating an environment where our team members feel valued, respected, and confident in the knowledge that their safety is our number one concern. We are committed to providing the necessary training, resources, and support to help our employees perform their jobs safely. But more than that, we strive to foster a culture where safety is everyone’s responsibility, and everyone feels empowered to contribute to making our workplace safer. At Iron Jack, we don’t just talk about safety - we live it every day. Because at the end of the day, nothing is more important than ensuring that every member of our team goes home safe. That’s the Iron Jack way. #SafetyFirst #PowerInfrastructure #WorkplaceSafety #SafetyCulture #SafetyTraining #EmployeeSafety #SafetyAwareness #InfrastructureSafety #SafetyInnovation

Ladder Safety Month | Week 1 Week 1 of Ladder Safety Month focuses on ladder training and awareness. Employers need to provide proper training to all individuals who will be using ladders: • Educate users on ladder safety guidelines, best practices, and potential hazards. • Instruct users to read and follow all the safety information labels on the ladder. • Promote a culture of safety awareness where workers actively identify and report ladder safety concerns. Avoid factors that contribute to falls from ladders: haste or sudden movement, overreaching, lack of attention, improper climbing posture such as standing too high or straddling the ladder and carrying objects and not maintaining three points of contact. • Preplan - Inspect and know the hazards within your work environment. • Choose the correct ladder for the job – a self-supporting stepladder or a non-self- supporting leaning, single or extension ladder.

Title: "Trench Safety Essentials: The Role of Knowledge, Competence, and Planning" Knowledge lends way to life. Before hopping into a trench, employees – and their employers – need to be prepared. Has someone checked the soil conditions? Are protective measures in place? What kind of weather is expected for the day? The answers to these questions can mean the difference between life and serious injury. Have a competent person on site. Having a competent person on the job site all the time isn’t a requirement. However, without one, employees are at constant risk. A simple rain storm or nearby utilities can affect trench work. A competent person must be nearby to keep an eye out for changing conditions. Choose the best protection method There are four basic methods of trench protection. Each one works best in different conditions. First, a competent person can look at the soil condition. Then, they can advise on the best method to use: Sloping. Soil and material are sloped away from the work area. Benching. Soil and material are packed into level steps. Shielding. A structure is put in place to protect employees. It is usually made of steel or aluminum. Shoring. Direct pressure is applied to soil and material to hold it away from the work area. “The difference between shoring and shielding is that shoring prevents the cave-in and shields protect you from a cave-in The best way to prevent an incident is to plan ahead. Stay safe y'all.

Trench work requires careful planning and preparation to ensure the safety of workers. Checking soil conditions is crucial to prevent collapses, and having protective measures like shoring or sloping in place is essential. Weather conditions can also impact trench safety, so it’s important to consider factors like rain that could affect soil stability. Being prepared and following safety protocols can indeed make a significant difference in preventing accidents and ensuring the well-being of employees.

Safety Consulting Specialists supports Ladder Safety Month. Join us this March in promoting ladder safety and decreasing the number of ladder-related incidents that happen each year. Proper planning plays a key role in ladder safety. Plan how to safely get materials to the higher level to complete the job. If a ladder is damaged, tag it "Out of Service" and remember to place ladders using a 1:4 ratio, meaning set up the ladder 1 foot away from the wall for every 4 feet of ladder height. #laddersafety #LadderSafetyMonth #safetyfirst

A jobsite safety briefing (JSSB) is essential to recognizing and mitigating exposures. That’s the definition of “safety.” Bartlett Tree Experts Team Minnetonka takes this seriously and includes all crew members in the process to get their input and engagement before starting the job. The best feedback comes from the field, in the field! #leadingwithsafety #safetyculture

Safety protects lives. This is more than just a saying at NNI. It’s our foundation. Because safety isn't just about wearing hard hats or following protocols. It’s about listening to the people on our job sites. Picture a job site where every suggestion is heard. Where the newest worker can speak up just like a seasoned superintendent. That’s our goal on every job site. Different perspectives make us better and safer. And each voice can point out something others might miss. So, let’s keep the dialogue open. Let’s keep learning from each other. And let’s remember why we prioritize safety. Because safety doesn’t just protect individuals. It protects everyone on a job site. #safetyweek #nniconstruction #construction
