Self-Performance

RN Civil Construction takes pride in being a self-performing contractor, typically self-performing 75% + of the work on our projects using our own skilled workforce and equipment. This autonomy in handling crucial project components allows us to exert greater control over our budget, schedule, and quality.

Our approach ensures that everyone from our office management to field staff is proficient in all divisions of construction and RN employees have knowledge of practical aspects of all areas of construction, enabling us to deliver superior quality and efficiency in every project we undertake.

Wastewater Contractor's Policy 02-policy

SAFETY AND HEALTH POLICY

RN Civil Construction is fully committed to providing a safe working environment for all employees. No endeavor is worthy if it should bring about human suffering through injury, illness or loss of life. Each day, we should all be guided by a desire to protect ourselves and our fellow workers from the potentially devastating effects of an injury. In addition to the pain, stress, and interruption to our lives that an accident can cause, reducing accidents and injuries provides a safe work place that promotes employee satisfaction, reduces damage to property and equipment, improves quality of work and reduces direct and indirect costs of accidents.

A good safety record reflects the quality of management, supervision and work force. It also serves to promote business and thereby contributes to the continuing growth and success of the company and each employee. Reducing the costs associated with accidents improves financial performance of not only the company, but of individual employees through better wages and better benefits.

To achieve this important goal, a safety and health policy has been developed. While the ultimate success of a safety and health program depends upon the full cooperation of each individual employee, it is management's responsibility to see that safety and health rules and procedures are adequate and enforced, and to see that effective training and educational programs are employed to the greatest advantage. The Safety and Health Policy will be followed at all levels of the company. The policy will be continuously monitored and may be modified and improved as needed by company management.

Safety shall not be sacrificed for productions but rather considered an integral part of quality control, cost reduction and job efficiency. Every supervisor should be aware of the safety performance demonstrated by the employees under his/her supervision.
It is the goal of RN Civil Construction to completely eliminate accidents and illnesses related to work and return each employee to their family and friends at the end of each day – safely!
