Safety

Every Job, Every Task, Every Time

Established Safety Culture

At every level and in every task, safety is not just a priority—it’s our way of working.

Safety First. Always.

Pioneer Construction takes the health and welfare of its employees very seriously. We strive for zero accidents and incidents. Preplanning, near-miss reporting, and good-catch reporting are tools we utilize to keep our job sites safe. We will never place production above safety!

The construction pipeline industry has seen an uptick in fatalities from unprotected trenches. This is unacceptable and a travesty.

To educate our employees on the importance of safety, Pioneer holds trainings throughout the year and an annual safety day. During this annual training, we bring leading guest speakers from the safety community. One of those speakers, Eric Giguere, talked about his experience of being buried alive in an unprotected trench while installing a new sewer pipeline.

Dangerous Work Performed Safely

Each Day Matters

Pioneer Construction has taken safety awards for NUCA in PA for 2007, 2011, 2012, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021. This is a great accomplishment, but each day matters. We have safety officers in the company who complete job audits to ensure our employees comply with company policies and OSHA standards. Pioneer also has an established State Certified Safety Committee that meets monthly to discuss safety matters, incident reports, and improvements to be implemented within our culture.
