Safety is Our Top Priority

Therefore, we must work to make every workplace safe by detecting and correcting unsafe working conditions, as well as the detection of unsafe work practices.

Our Safety Policy has equal importance with G.W. Becker, Inc.’s policies of providing the best quality and most productive service in our industry.

It is our goal to completely eliminate accidents and injuries. Because of the many different hazards of our industry, we must maintain a constant safety awareness to achieve this goal.
