At Nelcom Construction, we are sincere in our commitment to providing our employees and customers with a safe and healthy operating environment. Having spent decades in the field, Nelcom Construction senior management team understands first-hand the importance of a safe job environment. Field personnel come with decades of experience supporting them. We demonstrate our commitment to safe work practices before a candidate is even hired through mandatory pre-employment drug screening and background checks. It continues through the initial training and orientation process, where each field employee is required to be trained in a variety of safety areas including Safeland safety education course before they are eligible to work for our clients. All employees also enjoy regular continuing education courses throughout their tenure with Nelcom Construction. Our on-the-job, as well as off-the job, training is best in class. We are committed to continuous improvement of our health and safety policies and procedures and implement corrective actions immediately as safety hazards are identified.
