INSIDE MEC
NOBODY GETS HURTRecognize. Eliminate. Document.
Our RED book is a tool used by
every project team to help ensure
our ultimate safety goal — nobody
gets hurt.
Knowing more than 90 percent of incidents are caused by
unsafe acts, MEC’s craft developed and implemented the
RED book — a companywide program designed to eliminate
unsafe acts by asking employees to identify hazards. The Craft
Voice in Safety (CVIS) mission empowers every craftsperson
on a project. In partnership with management — through
ownership, communication and prevention — craft are taking
care of craft to achieve our goal of “Nobody Gets Hurt.”
SAFETY FIRST
MEC’s Craft Voice in Safety
program is
LED BY CRAFT
on the front line.
