Safety
“At West Broadway, safety is not just a practice, it’s a way of life. As the Head of Safety, I’m proud to say that our commitment to safety is reflected in every aspect of our work, from pre-construction planning to project completion. On our team, every member takes responsibility for ensuring that our job sites are safe and free of hazards. We believe that everyone has a role to play in promoting a culture of safety and we work collaboratively to identify potential risks and implement effective solutions. It’s my job to make sure everyone onsite at a West Broadway project is well educated with our procedures and safe before all else.”

West Broadway's Safety Information
When your construction project begins, your mind will likely be filled with many competing priorities. The safety of those in and around the job site shouldn’t be one of them. Not when you’re working with a commercial construction company who genuinely believes safety is the most important thing we do ─ every day. Far beyond just our construction team and crew, we embrace a collaborative culture of safety and are committed to making sure your staff, facility users and members of the public return home safely when each day is done.
A Genuine Culture of Safety
An embedded culture of safety starts with ownership — leading by example. Starting with our CEO Stephanie Werbe, to each and every one of our employees, a never-ending focus on safety is at the heart of what we do. Working closely with your team, West Broadway’s full-time safety professionals will coordinate proactively with trade partners and industry experts to customize our approach to make sure we’re planning for safety on your commercial construction project each and every step along the way. Our performance and commitment to safety is unparalleled, as shown in the statistical information provided below. The West Broadway safety culture also benefits in lower insurance premiums, but in reduced project costs and increased “safe” productivity.
Zero: The Only Acceptable Goal
Our quest for a zero-injury work environment isn’t just a priority. It’s a key tenet of our company. We emphasize safety because, simply put, it’s the right thing to do. We are proud of our still perfect safety record; West Broadway has never had a worker’s compensation claim and zero recordable injuries on any project since our inception.
