Safety Management Statement

We at Ops Contracting Services, LLC (OCS), are committed to both safety and quality.  It is our goal to provide a safe work environment, deliver quality services for our customers, and to remain a profitable and growing company.  It is our commitment to supply the necessary training and equipment to enable each employee to perform his or her job in a safe and efficient manner.  However, each employee must also be committed to safety and quality.  Each employee has a responsibility to himself or herself, fellow workers, and OCS to use the provided training and equipment to perform jobs safely.  Each employee also has a responsibility to be constantly aware of his or her work practices, the work practices of fellow workers, and the work environment.  We must have input from each employee regarding the safety of work practices, procedures, equipment, and conditions.
 
Working together, with management commitment and employee support, we can meet these goals! 

The most important asset to our organization and to our client is our staff of competent, qualified, and experienced environmental professionals.

All OCS field personnel complete a comprehensive, structured training curriculum to ensure that they perform our industrial service, remediation, abatement, and hazardous waste site activities with full regard to safety and environmental preservation. Core training topics include but are not limited to Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER), Confined-Space Entry, Lockout/Tagout, Bloodborne Pathogen, Personal Protective Equipment, Respiratory Protection, Excavation, Scaffolding, DOT Hazmat Regulations, and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).  These programs are in compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910 and 1926, DOT 49 CFR, and EPA 40 CFR. The requirements of the OCS training curriculum are continually updated in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations.

OCS job sites are managed through the comprehensive OCS Safety Management System. This system is designed to provide user-friendly, yet comprehensive Health and Safety (H&S) management capabilities for all levels of employees.

OCS is staffed with full-time safety professionals who continually monitor and assist our field staff with the latest in industrial hygiene and safety monitoring equipment. Our commitment to staffing our job sites with full-time health and safety personnel results in operations that are more efficient and safe for both OCS personnel and our clients.
