At Storm King Contracting, Inc., SAFETY is our number one priority. We have developed a strong safety culture that is reflected in how we do business. A safety culture is defined as “the practice of safety procedures and behaviors by all levels of a construction organization.” We firmly believe this. We feel that this is a supreme responsibility of all levels of our organization. It is not just a corporate goal but is a requirement in everything we do.

We have adopted ZERO ACCIDENTS as our only acceptable goal. We believe that the prevention of accidents is our “moral obligation”. We recognize that the protection of our employees, property, and the public are essential to the successful completion of every project we undertake. Accident prevention is a responsibility that is shared at every level of our organization, from the president through our craft work force. At Storm King, we believe that all accidents are preventable. Our goal continues to be ZERO ACCIDENTS.
