Safety
Lord's Pledge to Safety
At LORD, the safe development of every project is a duty that extends from the company's President to all the staff on the field. We know that excellence does not happen by chance and LORD's reputation as quality contractors is a direct reflection of this daily concern for safety.
LORD's rigorous safety program insures that employees are kept up to date with the latest in accident prevention through:
- Continuous safety training seminars
- A written Safety Program (in compliance with OSHA as well as other Federal and local regulations)
- A rigorous implementation of safety measures
- Frequent inspections
Safety Awards
At Lord, we are very proud of our safety record and work very hard every year to ensure that we keep our projects safe, because it is important to keep our employees and others safe, as it is also important to turn in our projects on time and on schedule and safety plays a big role on achieving this.
LORD is also proud to have been given a modified rate for its "workmen's compensation insurance" premium thanks to its excellent safety record over the past several years. LORD's commitment to safety and excellence has also been recognized by The Business Roundtable, the Puerto Rico Manufacturers Association and other associations in the contracting field, for its outstanding safety records.

At Lord we know that our most important and valuable resource is a skilled and competent work force, so we take very seriously our responsibility to maintain it safe and trained.
