Protecting Our People


Each individual at William Charles undergoes rigorous safety education and employee training developed by our professional risk management team. In addition, we offer creative incentives to ensure employees are well aware of safe work practices. Among other objectives, we strive to promote wellness and avoid complacency. We also carefully screen potential employees to ensure they will be capable of performing required duties.

By elevating the standards for safety and providing our employees with the knowledge and resources to incorporate safety into their day-to-day work life, William Charles improves loss control and protects our people on every project we manage.

As a result of our focused safety efforts, our EMR is 0.58—a figure almost 40% lower than the construction industry average. However, our goal is nothing less than a totally safe environment with zero accidents or fatalities–anything less is just not acceptable.
