Safety has always been paramount in the Seattle construction industry. This is an area which can lead to disastrous results if codes and protocols are not followed. This is where United Seattle has paid special attention including continuous safety training and iron clad protocols for using all methods that assist in ensuring safety of the workers, supervisors and clients alike. Moreover, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) under the Department of Labor is holding a nationwide event as the safe + sound week that recognizes the success of workplace health and safety program that allows fellow Americans in the construction industry to be more safe than ever.
