How We Stay Safe

Protecting Our Crews

Daily Job Safety Analyses

Daily Job Safety Analyses

We go over the day’s work plan and discuss any recent safety issues. Each person must call attention to a relevant hazard before the meeting ends.

Pre-Job Safety Meetings

Every job is different — our crews need to be prepared. Before we break ground, we meet to discuss site-specific safety rules, risks, and hazards.

Purpose-Driven Training

Safety is more than a box to check at Gabe’s. We don’t just give our people a list of rules. We explain the “why” behind each requirement.

“We aim to do it right and safe the first time, and we are always learning to do things better and safer. Gabe’s has a ‘Do It Safe or Not at All’ attitude.”

Steve Horneck Foreman, Specialty Projects

“Gabe’s has a very safe working culture. From PPE supplies to truck maintenance and providing the required training to keep us safe on the rail or an active job site, they provide everything I need to do the job as safe as possible.”

Jon Gruenke Damage Prevention Technician

“Our goal is that everybody makes it out safely. One group, one team. We keep our coworkers safe by making sure everybody is trained properly and being our brother’s keeper.”

TJ Biwer Foreman, Specialty Projects

“We are a safety-first company, and that means a lot in our industry. We want everyone going home to their families. Everyone has stop work authority if something feels unsafe.”

Rusty Ott Director of Construction, Specialty Projects
