Our Commitment to Health and Safety

HITT’s safety culture goes beyond policies and procedures. We’re defining the new standard in safety to ensure everyone in our workplace can thrive.

Safety Beyond Standards

Safety is the first priority in every element of our work and is the measure of a successful project above all else.

Fostering a Culture of Care

Safety is so much more than just physical health. Our Culture of Care embraces mental wellbeing, psychological safety, and inclusive workplaces. We move beyond checklists to coach and motivate our people and trade partners to create work environments where every individual is cared for and in turn shows care for their teammates.

Setting New Standards

Construction is constantly evolving, and we embrace and invest in best-in-class training, innovative tools, and top-of-the-line equipment to keep our people and projects safe.

Implementing Safety Solutions

We use safety data to inform our decisions. HITT’s dedicated safety department identifies and analyzes emerging trends, defines the path to safety for the enterprise, and puts best practices to work on our jobsites nationwide.

Implementing our Safety Strategy

Centered around our Culture of Care, there are five elements that guide every aspect of our safety approach.

Empowerment
Accountability
Communication
Mindfulness
Training

Empowerment

Team members are trained to identify unsafe acts and risky behaviors. We empower every person on our jobsites to speak up and be a part of the safety solution.

When the HITT team raffled off new Red Wing safety boots, I was lucky enough to win a pair! HITT sets the standard by showing their subcontractors how appreciated they are for their hard work, not just by telling them. They know that the tradespeople in the field are just as important as the people in the office. I’ll enjoy the next fifty miles walking in style and staying safe, thanks to the HITT team.

During Construction Safety Week 2022, we wanted to reward our trades partners for an incredible commitment to safety on a large data center project, so the team raffled off 50 $300 Red Wing Boot vouchers. A Red Wing Boot truck came to the jobsite for the winners to redeem their vouchers, and every worker on-site received a discount for new boots!
