We understand the unique challenges that come with working for one company while reporting and working at a site of another. It's essential to recognise that safety is a shared responsibility between Chandler Macleod, our employees and the clients we work with. By partnering effectively with our clients, we can combine our efforts to create a safer work environment for everyone involved.


We Know Our Clients


Building strong relationships with our clients is the foundation of workplace safety. By understanding their operations, safety culture, and specific requirements, we can tailor our approaches to meet their needs effectively. Knowing our clients also means being aware of their safety protocols and integrating them into our practices. This collaborative effort ensures that everyone—employees and clients alike—benefits from a cohesive safety strategy.


We Talk Safety at Every Opportunity


Communication is key in our safety-first culture. Whether it’s during onboarding, team meetings, reporting hazards, or casual check-ins, discussing safety reinforces its importance. Encourage open dialogue about safety concerns, suggestions, and best practices. The more we communicate, the stronger our collective commitment to safety becomes.


We Empower Our People


Empowerment is about giving everyone the confidence to prioritise safety. As Chandler Macleod employees, your insights and observations are invaluable. If you notice a potential hazard or have an incident, report them immediately to your onsite supervisor and your Chandler Macleod representative. Your proactive approach not only contributes to your safety but also enhances the overall safety culture of the workplace. Remember, when we empower our people, we create a stronger safety network.

In conclusion, partnering with our employees and clients to combine efforts in safety is essential for everyone involved. By knowing our clients, talking about safety at every opportunity, and empowering our employees, we can create a safer, more productive work environment. At Chandler Macleod, we are all Safety Leaders, and together, we can make a real difference in workplace safety.
