Safety is how we run work

Steel erection is unforgiving of shortcuts, so we do not take them. Here is how safety actually works on a Metro Erectors site, in the terms GCs prequalify on.

SP-01

Daily safety briefings

Crews start every workday with a safety meeting before deploying to the site, led by the site supervisor: the day's picks, hazards, weather, and access, reviewed before anyone hooks a load.

SP-02

A dedicated safety committee

Safety at Metro Erectors has owners. Our safety committee reviews field practices and near-misses, and keeps procedures current instead of letting the manual gather dust.

SP-03

Trained, certified crews

Our ironworkers and riggers maintain safety training and certifications in compliance with federal, state, and city requirements, current and documented.

SP-04

Every pick planned

Crane placement, load paths, and pick sequence are engineered before mobilization. Improvised lifts are how steel work goes wrong. We do not improvise lifts.
