Construction Safety Week
Construction Safety Week | May 1 – 5, 2023
Construction Safety Week is an annual event that helps us keep safety at the forefront of our minds. During the week, we discuss the best construction practices and share safety resources.
Our entire team is committed to the safety of your job site so that you can go home safe at the end of the day. The projects we proudly construct and design, the teams we work alongside, and the companies we work for are all built on safety. From the moment we step onto a job, it is the cornerstone of everything we do.
Safety is a value and common belief we all share. Our families at home depend on it. It’s up to us to understand the impact of our actions and guarantee that every decision, operation, and project is built on safety.
When you hire GPRS/TruePoint to locate utilities or 3D laser scan, you are choosing to develop your project on a good foundation. GPRS/TruePoint wants to partner with you and your team to increase awareness of the dangers associated with excavation, saw cutting, and core drilling.
