Our comprehensive system of Improve-It’s ensures everyone has an active role in job site safety. With a convenient phone app, employees have the power to both recognize success and call attention to areas that need improvement. Thanks to this innovative tool, no issue is ever overlooked; each item flagged for change is assigned a responsible party until the issue is resolved.

As leaders in the construction industry, we are always striving to nurture a world-class safety culture that ensures zero accidents and a safe work environment. We want all employees to return home every day without incident – no exceptions.

Why We Work Safe

At all our job sites, we strive to maintain a robust culture of safety by focusing on our most important individual motivations. No matter what inspires us – family, friends, health and well-being, beloved pets, or hobbies – these reminders keep each team member dedicated to their commitment towards maintaining the safest working conditions. We regularly create mood boards with photos that evoke those core values, so they are an ever-present reminder during every shift.

Digital solutions maximize safety

Imagine having the power to visualize the future and prevent problems before they occur. The MWH Digital Delivery team is eliminating rework and revolutionizing safety using digital tools. By using 4D modeling to plan and visualize the work, we can identify jobsite hazards and risks before any of our people ever set foot onsite. This has allowed the team to increase collaboration, optimize design, and enhance the efficiency and safety of the future construction.
