Keep Safety Great, Safety Incentive Program

Keep Safety Great, Safety Incentive Program

Every incident is preventable, that thought process has led us to humbling success. We believe in holding each other and ourselves accountable and rewarding ourselves for safe work. Friendly, yet competitive competition keeps our team close and morale high, even when we are 500 miles apart.

Level 1 Training

Level 1 Training

Our new hires go through an extensive one week program where they learn the basics of construction and the NS Giles Safety Culture. Hands on training provides opportunity for failure in a safe and learned environment. Once new hires are sent to the field, they enter a shadow program, learning from seasoned leaders and sharpening their skills.
