Safety at EDI

By integrating safety into our daily operations, we reinforce our commitment to protect of our staff, sub-contractors, clients, public, property, worksites and the environment through OHS guiding principles.

Our safety objective is to meet or exceed legislation, regulations and industry best practices.

We believe all injuries and incidents are preventable. To achieve this goal, we have developed extensive safe work practices and procedures, safety planning, and incident reporting and investigation systems that support EDI’s health and safety performance and promote awareness to all employees.

Safety Starts with Me! Active participation by everyone, every day, on every project is required to achieve a healthy and safe work environment for all.
