SAFETY

We believe safety is an investment, not an expense. We understand what it takes to construct facilities safely, healthfully, and efficiently. At VJS, we believe in “safety first.” 

Our commitment to safety is about more than compliance, but rather to strive for safety excellence in all aspects of work on every project, every day, through employee feedback and engagement. 

Our safety team works with our superintendents to ensure all safety requirements are met throughout the duration of the project. What sets us apart from other general contractors is our pre-planning approach to ensure safety, the involvement of senior management in reinforcing safety standards throughout the company, and the relationship that we build with each of our employees so that they always prioritize safety.

Safety is the responsibility of each employee, not just the safety team.

VJS is a proud member of the Wisconsin Construction Wellness Community (WCWC) and the Associated General Contractors of America.
