I just had the opportunity to read one of your articles from a 2013 publication of Safety Made, ‘Improving Contractor Safety Performance.’
I have been managing contractor safety for many years and I have the exact same conclusions as you addressed. I agree 100% that safety performance can be significantly minimized during the design and planning stages. I have spent countless hours working with contractors during the pre-bid stages to help them understand our requirements and expectations, including a hazard checklist designed for each project along with forms to ensure proper documentation of all EH&S requirements.
I liked the way you described leading and lagging indicators as activity-based and results-based metrics, which better describes them in my mind.
I wish I would have know about you and your work when I lived in Tomball a few years ago. It would have been a great education to learn from you. I am looking forward to reading the other articles you have listed on your website.

Doug Smith was here yesterday to complete the last training session. I was very impressed with Doug’s knowledge of hoisting and rigging. He is also a great presenter. My employees had nothing but good things to say about the training sessions and seem to have learned many things about how to rig!
I am passing on your information to the other two sites about the hoisting and rigging training!
Thank you again for the great service!
