SAFETY PROGRAM

​The RMS Safety program is a proven, quantifiable system consisting of outlined elements, each of which are consistently reviewed, measured, and evaluated to ensure we are continuously moving toward our goal of an accident free workplace. The two main elements of our program are DOCTRINE and CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT.

DOCTRINE

The Doctrine component of our Safety Program consists of three elements: Identity, Base Principles, and Documents.

Identity: At RMS Cranes, we feel safety is important enough to warrant its own identity consisting of a symbol/logo and tagline. The logo is used on official safety correspondence, forms, and safety incentives, which works as a constant reminder of our company commitment to safety.

Base Principles: The Base Principles or values of our safety program are those that are unchanging and remain a constant commitment. These have been created, defined, and are presented to employees and customers on a regular basis as a reminder that safety must always be our top priority.

Documents: Our safety manuals, forms, policies, and procedures are living documents that are reviewed, updated and/or modified on a frequent and regular basis. As regulatory guidelines and industry requirements change, we strive to ensure that our program remains updated with these changes.

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

Safety Community: RMS retains a dedicated group of full time safety professionals throughout the company. These employees have specific training, certifications, and management skills. We believe it to be of great importance to provide our employees with the correct resources to help in their day to day tasks, whether it’s on a job site, or at home. This entire group participates in weekly and quarterly safety community meetings. The goal is to foster consistency across company locations, review trends, and share lessons learned.

Communication: The safety team communicates on a regular basis with the field workforce as well as members of management. This is done through daily safety meetings, weekly safety meetings, safety incentive programs, safety newsletters, safety alerts, etc. All safety community members participate in weekly updates reporting progress in their areas which is then shared throughout the company in branch safety meetings. Company-wide, our team remains informed and updated on all safety topics on a day to day basis.

Training: Safety and skill training is offered company-wide on a frequent and regular basis. Many of our locations have dedicated training rooms and we strive to conduct training by utilizing our in-house, certified, and qualified instructors. Our current safety team includes OSHA instructors, MSHA instructors, First Aid & CPR instructors, NCCCO & NCCER instructors, test administrators, environmental trainers, paramedics, and EMTs.

Reporting: A consistent companywide incident reporting procedure is in place with defined roles and responsibilities for all involved.

RMS personnel are trained and highly-skilled team members that engage in extensive job and safety training. ALL of our operators and riggers have NCCCO & NCCER Certifications. RMS Cranes offers completely managed solutions for our customers, providing a strong management team that is always available to assist our customers. With branches spread out through Colorado and surrounding states, we are able to cross-utilize manpower and equipment from branch to branch, allowing us to provide efficient solutions to our customer base by saving on mobilization costs.
