The McDonald York safety culture is a way of life at work and home.

The McDonald York safety culture is a way of life at work and home. It’s a core value clients notice when walking through our project sites or speaking with our Superintendents. Safety is a condition of employment and is a paramount aspect of our job. We devote significant attention to safety, because it is an investment- not a cost. We will never put profit ahead of the safety and well being of our employees, subcontractors, and clients.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1550616146341{padding-top: 24px !important;padding-right: 24px !important;padding-bottom: 24px !important;padding-left: 24px !important;}”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”4/12″][vc_single_image image=”509″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_space=”padding-medium”][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”4/6″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”510″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_column_text]

Safety Recognition

Since 2004, McDonald York has been a proud member of the North Carolina Department of Labor (NCDOL) Building Star Program. The Building Star program recognizes contractors that display outstanding safety performance by establishing and maintaining a safe workplace. This is achieved through management’s commitment and leadership, employee involvement and participation, hazard identification and evaluation, hazard prevention and control, and safety and health training.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_space=”remove_padding”][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”4/6″][vc_single_image image=”512″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_space=”padding-medium”][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”4/6″][vc_column_text]

Our Safety Approach

McDonald York’s current EMR of 0.77 is a result of management’s commitment to safety through visible leadership, engaging employees at all levels, empowering employees to address safety concerns, and utilizing the most sophisticated, user friendly software to share safety data in real time with all team members. We partner with subcontractors who share our safety values and visibly demonstrate those values everyday.

Procore’s® Universal Platform allows us to manage and distribute our written EHS programs, procedures, and forms from any location. Our teams can easily access the information they need in real time and on any device. This means greater teamwork, better communication, and a safer job.
