Safety is our priority.

Every project begins with a clear plan to protect our people, our clients, property, and operations.

Safety above all else.

Company safety goal

Our standard is zero.

Our organizational goal is zero injuries, incidents, and illnesses.

It is our greatest responsibility to follow best practices in safety to effectively eliminate any hazardous circumstances that may affect employees, clients, company, and property.

At Picou Group, nothing is more important than the safety of our team. Our safety culture is based on proactive work procedures and leadership from every level of the organization.

We work as a team to maintain workplaces free from incidents and injury. Every day, we identify and eliminate hazardous circumstances that could affect employees, clients, company property, or the work itself.

Safety starts on Day 1, from upper management to every new hire. Training, communication, and follow-through keep that expectation present throughout the job.

Safety in practice

Safety starts before the work.

Our crews help create Jobsite Safety Analyses (JSAs) that identify the work, related hazards, procedures, equipment, and required personal protective equipment before execution begins.

The process is practical and field-led: people understand the plan, conditions are discussed as they change, and corrective measures are followed through to completion.

Plan the task

Create the JSA, identify hazards, and define a safe work method.

Align the crew

Review tasks, procedures, equipment, PPE, and changing site conditions.

Learn and improve

Document training, reinforce expectations, and follow corrective actions through completion.

Safety above all else

Everyone goes home safely, every day.

Maintaining a safe and healthy work environment takes individual responsibility, open communication, continual improvement, and leadership from the field through management.

We coordinate with clients so site-wide expectations, work controls, and corrective measures are clear from planning through completion.
