Gray & Son believes that knowledge is the cornerstone of construction safety. From the moment a new employee joins our team, they undergo a rigorous training regimen designed to instill a deep understanding of safe work practices.
Every new hire receives an introduction to the fundamental principles of workplace safety, including the proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and emergency procedures. Depending on their role, employees also receive specialized training relevant to their specific tasks, whether it’s operating heavy machinery, handling hazardous materials, or working at heights.
