Contractor Management provided by Absolute Safety

 

Many general contractors do not fully understand the risks associated with using subcontractors that are not properly assessed and qualified for acceptable HS&E practices. Using contractors that have not been vetted by a strong CMP puts your business at serious risk. With sub-contractors often performing higher risk jobs in work sites, one of the best practices in a General Contractor’s safety and health program is to have a formal contractor management program. Having a third-party contract management partner relieves administrative burden, as well as risk and expenses associated with managing the contractor HS&E ecosystem.

 
 

29 CFR 1926.16(a), OSHA states:

"In no case shall the prime contractor be relieved of overall responsibility for compliance with the requirements of this part for all work to be performed under the contract."
