UDC Corporation maintains a zero tolerance policy and all perspective employees must successfully pass a pre-employment drug screen.
We employ the idea that all accidents are avoidable and that if the following is implemented for all tasks/projects we will maintain an accident free working environment:
- Employ the Proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Maintain Good Housekeeping
- Research and Communicate the recognized safe means of performing a task before performing that task.
UDC Corporation 3 year average insurance modification rate is 84% whereas 100% is the national average. Anything less than 100% is considered better than average.
We mandate that all employees and subcontractors conduct a documented safety meeting at least every seven (7) days, prior to a new major task beginning, and for all new employees starting to work on that site or at a fabrication facility. This requirement leads to documented meetings occurring many times per week and per day.
UDC Corporation believes in training of its employees and we are certified in the following:
- UDC Corporation’s employees are MSHA Part 46 certified. (MSHA is defined as “Mine Safety and Health Administration”. It is a Federal agency of the Department of Labor that oversees surface and subsurface mining safety rules and regulations. MSHA conducts inspections, assists with training, and can issue citations, penalties and-cease-and-desist orders in situations where a mine’s practices create imminent danger to workers. This certification requires annual updates and refresher courses.)
