OSHA
We had an unexpected visit by OSHA a few weeks back. We appreciate their efforts to keep our industry safe by conducting these on site inspections.This is the certificate that we received saying that we practice safe industry standards by using the proper equipment and gear best suited to keep our jobs safe. Being "in compliance" means that they did not find any violations on our job site.
It's always nice to have our efforts appreciated by the man.
What we do in the rain
It's been a rainy fall and winter, making it unsafe to be in the trees with a chainsaw. There's always plenty to do, though.Like working on the new shop space, where we also clean and organize our equipment.
Or stacking freshly milled lumber and slabs.
Aerial rescue training--both in the air,
And on a spar.
In an emergency situation, we'll all rely on each other to act in the safest, smartest way possible to get the injured to medical attention. The more we practice, the safer we are.Of course, there is always firewood to cut, and lattes to drink.
And welcome to Michael, pictured above, as the latest addition to the crew.
