Make It Safe</div> <br> At Polk Mechanical we made a strategic and proactive decision to implement a Safety Revival campaign company wide and on a large scale. It was not only to impact the hundreds of Polk Mechanical employees but everyone around them as well.<br><br> What were our key elements of the Safety Revival? <ul> <li>Establish a Behavioral Safety Committee that meets weekly on topics such as Safe Behavior vs. At Risk Behavior <li>Build around a common theme   Is It Safe? Make It Safe! <li>Buddy System complete with a work stoppage card carried by every employee for unsafe situations. <li>Daily PATH (Primary Assessment of Tasks & Hazards) meetings at the crew level with daily revolving Safety Coach <li>Redesigned safety training programs to include lab exercises and identification of the 5 At Risk Behaviors. <li>Polk Shining Star Award for monthly employee recognition </ul> Today, our safety programs have set a tone on the job site to the point that contractors are requesting our presence versus hard bidding.
