Commitment to Safety


At Velney Construction, safety is at the core of everything we do. Maintaining a safe work environment is a priority and a fundamental part of our company culture. From our skilled team members to our project sites, we prioritize safety at every step, ensuring everyone stays protected and that work progresses smoothly without unnecessary risks. By upholding strict safety standards, we reduce the likelihood of accidents, safeguard our team’s well-being, and maintain high-quality work. Safety isn’t just a requirement for us—it’s an essential commitment to our people, trade partners, clients, and the long-term success of every project we take on.

How we Promote Safety

  • zero-Incident Safety Culture: Preventing accidents is at the heart of everything we do.
  • Following OSHA safety standards: Ensuring our team is consistently trained to meet or exceed these regulations.
  • Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): We provide all our workers with the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE) and ensure they are properly trained in its use. By making PPE a non-negotiable part of our work culture, we reduce the risk of falls, tools, and equipment injuries.
  • Job Site Orientation and Safety Plans: Before starting any project, we conduct thorough job site orientations and review safety plans to ensure everyone is aware of potential risks, safety protocols, and emergency procedures. This keeps everyone informed and prepared for any situation that may arise.
  • Maintaining a Clean and Organized Job Site: A tidy work environment reduces the risk of accidents, such as trips, falls, and other injuries, by keeping pathways clear and materials properly stored. We prioritize cleanliness by implementing daily clean-up routines, properly disposing of debris, and organizing tools and materials in designated areas.
  • Lean Construction Principles: Help streamline workflows and minimize risks on the job site. One key aspect of our approach is ensuring that all construction materials, when delivered, are organized on racks, pallets, or wheels. This simple yet effective practice allows easy mobility, reduces clutter, and prevents tripping hazards.
  • Leverage Cutting-Edge Technology: Ensure the highest level of safety on our job sites. One of the key tools we use is Autodesk Build software, which helps us manage projects more efficiently and safely. This software allows for real-time collaboration, streamlined communication, and detailed tracking of safety protocols and inspections. Using Autodesk Build, we can quickly identify and address potential risks proactively and maintain up-to-date safety records.
