Industries / Construction

Protect the crew. Keep the job moving.

General contractors and trades who need to get approved, get carded, and get to work, with programs that stand up to an owner's review.

What we see here

Three situations that start the call.

Paperwork before mobilization

Owners and GCs want a written safety program and a site-specific plan before your crew sets foot on site. A generic binder gets sent back.

Cards on day one

Many owners, GCs, and public contracts require OSHA 10 or 30 cards at the gate. If the class is not booked in time, the crew does not start.

Everyday tasks, regulated exposures

Cutting, grinding, and drilling concrete create silica dust. Saws and breakers create noise. Both have specific OSHA rules, and both get checked.

What we do here

Identify. Correct. Educate.

Identify

  • Gap analysis
  • Silica exposure monitoring
  • Noise surveys on tools and tasks
  • Lighting surveys
  • Site audits and mock inspections
See identify services →

Correct

  • Corporate safety manuals
  • ISO 45001, 14001, and 9001 management systems
  • Confined space programs
  • Written safety programs
  • Site-specific safety plans
  • Silica exposure control plans
  • Incident investigation and return-to-work programs
  • Emergency preparedness planning and Treo‑EX exercises

Educate

  • OSHA 10 and 30-Hour Construction
  • Fall protection training
  • MEWP and forklift operator training
  • CPR, AED, First Aid, and bleeding control
  • Confined space entry and rescue

Treo‑EX exercises

Exercise scenarios we build for this site.

Scenario 1

A fall with a worker suspended in a harness, and the rescue

Scenario 2

A utility strike during excavation

Scenario 3

Severe weather on an open site

Rules that apply

The requirements behind the work.

29 CFR 1926.1153
Respirable crystalline silica, with control methods, exposure assessment, and a written exposure control plan.
29 CFR 1926.501 and .503
Fall protection, generally at 6 feet in construction, with different thresholds for scaffolds, ladders, and some other work, plus written certification of each worker's fall protection training. General industry starts at 4 feet (29 CFR 1910.28), and many owners of live sites apply 4 feet to every crew.
29 CFR 1926.453 / 1926.451 / ANSI A92
Boom-type aerial lifts fall under 1926.453. Scissor lifts are treated as mobile scaffolds under 1926.451 and 1926.454. Operator training follows the ANSI/SAIA A92.22 and A92.24 standards.
29 CFR 1926.103 / 1910.134
Respiratory protection, including fit testing before use and every year after.
29 CFR 1926.52
Occupational noise exposure on construction sites.
OSHA Outreach Training Program
The 10- and 30-Hour classes behind the OSHA Outreach card.
29 CFR 1926.56
Minimum illumination in foot-candles for construction work areas.
Exposure limits
OSHA limits, with the NIOSH recommendation reported where it's stricter. Common exposures here include silica, lead, hexavalent chromium from welding stainless steel, noise, and carbon monoxide from equipment in enclosed areas.
29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA
Manholes, vaults, tanks, and pits on active sites follow 29 CFR 1926 Subpart AA. That means classification, permits, atmospheric testing, and a rescue plan before entry.
ISO 45001, 14001, and 9001
Not law, but often a contract requirement. Owners ask contractors and suppliers to show a certified or aligned management system.
Above the floor

Tenet recommends a consistent four-foot fall-protection threshold across mixed operations and construction sites, while addressing task-specific requirements and hazards.

What you get

What you walk away with.

  • Written programs and site-specific plans built for your scope
  • Exposure monitoring data with a plain-language summary
  • OSHA Outreach cards and training rosters
  • Fit test records for each worker and respirator
  • A punch list of corrections with owners and dates
  • Exercises come with the exercise plan, an after-action report, and an improvement plan with owners and dates
