Environmental, Health, and Safety Management

At Braun Construction Group, our commitment to environment, health, and safety is evidenced throughout all construction phases. Through active involvement with our clients, subcontractors, vendors, and partners, every activity is analyzed and planned to assure the highest level of environmental stewardship and the health and safety of all workers assigned to the project, the client, and the general public.

By approaching the environmental, health, and safety (EHS) management of the project using Total Quality Management (TQM) techniques, full integration of the EHS Program is possible. Training in EHS management is provided to all Braun Construction Group project supervision, empowering them to identify and correct EHS issues immediately. Subcontractor supervision has been brought into our training programs to assure clear communication of the requirements and responsibilities of each individual. Extensive technical, management, and updated training is provided to keep our project supervision on the leading edge of EHS management. Braun Construction superintendents practice the skill of "Pre-task" planning assuring all activities of the job are identified, hazards to be encountered are discussed and methods to avoid and control are in place before the first man hour on site begins.
