Our Safety Initiatives
Safety is at the core of the way behavior is observed, communicated, and investigated at Kateri Powerline. We follow a daily safety management system of leading and lagging indicators, including coaching observation trends, work site audits, good catch and near miss reports, corrective action follow-ups, total recordable incident rates, days away, and restricted duty and transfers. With these indicators, we perform trend analysis and program validation of safety performance. Should an incident occur, we quickly identify the root causes and develop corrective practices. This vigilant evaluation and implementation of company and industry-wide best practices ensures we maintain the absolute highest safety standards to protect our workers, our clients, and the community. Kateri Powerline aims to be the safest contractor in the markets we serve.
