SAFETY POLICY

At Gagnon Line Construction, the safety and health of every employee is a high priority and must be a part of every operation. It is every employee's responsibility at all levels. We will maintain a safety and health program conforming to the best practices of organizations of this type.

To be successful, such a program must embody the proper attitudes toward injury and illness prevention on the part of supervisors and employees.

Everyone must join together in providing safety and health and taking every reasonable measure to assure safe working conditions in the company.
