Health, Safety & Environmental (HSE)

At ASCEND, our focus is Health, Safety and Environmental. From the mental-health and well-being of our employees and subcontractors to the environmental impact upon our crews and wildlife, it all matters to get the job done right. Preventing work-related injuries, illness and accidents takes priority over schedule, cost and productivity. Putting our people and the environment first, HSE is also about how our work environment and conditions affects employees and their health. Mix that in with a “leave-no-trace-behind” mindset, and we do our best to leave sites the way we found them. ASCEND is committed to providing the necessary training, materials, resources and most importantly time, to ensure the safety and jobs of our team. Our subcontractors are vetted and part of our family. Following the strictest guidelines, standards and procedures this ensures we at ASCEND can deliver on time with no accidents or injuries.

ASCEND SAFETY PROGRAM

Our Director of Safety has over 20 years of safety instruction, and before that was a Firefighter EMT for an additional 5 years. Every 2 years our employees are certified and in addition do quarterly safety awareness weeks to make sure our teams are current on all safety practices. We also teach annual rescue every two years to ensure everyone goes home at the end of the day.

Risk Management

Risk management and safety training are crucial to the success of our people and industry. At ASCEND we are proactive with our safety protocols. all our crews are required to be OSHA 30 certified.

PRE-EMPLOYMENT-SCREENING-ICON

Pre-Employment Screening

Pre-employment screening, background checks and Drivers License checks are mandatory at ASCEND. Employees and subcontractors are handed an ASCEND Employee Handbook.

Zero Tolerance

Illegal drug and abuse of alcohol are strictly prohibited at ASCEND for the safety of all employees and subcontractors. We are dedicated to a safe and substance-free work environment.

MISSIONS THROUGH GLOBAL IMPACT

Our Scrappin’ For Water Campaign is here to help raise $180,000.00 for unreached communities with neverthirst.org. One of our core values at ASCEND is “generosity” and we are striving to be a company that leads with generosity and inviting others to come along side of us. For 2023 ASCEND will be giving all our scrap money away to bring clean water to communities that don’t have the resources for clean water. Providing a healthier quality of life and changing future generations by eliminating the diseases that are caused from poor water quality. To our industry, our company and to our clients, partners and vendors, we challenge you to join us in this mission. Please share this message and join us as we help spread the light of the Gospel.
