Quality Safety Times (QST) provides a subscription-based service with Quality, Loss Prevention and Safety training topics tailored to specific construction trades.
THE PROBLEM
RE-WORK COST INCREASING
- Up to 30% of project costs can be attributed to re-work (View Research)
- Conflicts from incorrectly installed construction components increases building costs and impacts the Project’s schedule
- Decades of institutional knowledge are being lost as Baby Boomers retire
- Errors made by support contractors and service providers cause project delays, budget impacts and re-work
EMPLOYEE INJURIES
- Employee injuries in the construction industry have been declining year over year, however too many construction workers still lose their lives every year and many more are severely injured
- Third-party injury claims have increased in frequency and costs
- OSHA is raising fine costs with increased emphasis on ’employee training’
- Errors made by support contractors and service providers cause employee injuries
The Solution
Reduction of Re-work
- We have employed the structure of the weekly safety tailgate meeting to create trade-specific weekly quality control training
- Quality topics reinforce correct installation procedures & work methods, they also share lessons learned from incorrect installs
- Loss Prevention topics share lessons learned and industry best practices such as: public safety, load securement, Fleet management, working near other trades, trade stacking, etc.
- Through ongoing training and the sharing of lessons learned for quality, contractors will reduce the likelihood of re-work, thus increasing quality, safety, and profits
Decrease in Injuries
