SAFETY PROGRAM
Mission
The mission of the CEA Building Industry Safety Program is to provide educational and networking opportunities for safety professionals and jobsite personnel of member firms.
Background
The CEA Building Industry Safety Program began in February of 1997 to provide an opportunity for safety officers and jobsite personnel of member firms to be involved in discussions and workshops and attend seminars where safety professionals speak on important issues relating to the building construction industry. Forums and seminars have been held on such topics as Subcontractor Compliance with Cal-OSHA Requirements; New OSHA Regulations & Policies re: Multi-Employer Jobsites; Hazard Communication; How to Conduct Effective Jobsite Meetings; Crane Safety and Scaffold Safety and Fall Protection.
In addition to administering the program, the CEA Safety Program Steering Committee has also participated in Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board proceedings. Committee members monitor the Standards Board agendas for construction related regulatory changes and variances being considered and propose a position for CEA to adopt.
The CEA Safety Program also enables safety professionals of member firms to network and share ideas on industry safety issues.
Forums and meetings of the Committee are bi-monthly. If you have any questions or would like to participate in the CEA Building Industry Safety Program, please contact Cindy Sato.
