People
The “People” in our sustainability model focuses on the social responsibility of businesses towards their stakeholders, including employees, customers, suppliers, and the communities in which they operate. The goal is to ensure that our business actions have a positive impact on society as a whole.
Safety
Our operations are centered around prioritizing safety, which serves as a foundational principle guiding our decisions. We strive to establish a culture of mutual care, where individuals share in our collective commitment towards achieving zero incidents.
Our Deconstruction Specialists undergo 10 weeks of OSHA certification with a certified instructor, and are equipped with all necessary safety gear to not only feel safe, but to also work safely. Additionally, we provide our clients with safety plans and handbooks, which are readily available upon request both prior to, during, and after their project. Above all, we value the well-being of our employees.
We see with a 360-degree approach
Our strong safety culture is built upon a proven methodology that encompasses various components, including an emergency preparedness plan, measures to safeguard the public, ongoing training and safety protocols for our trade partners, and an emphasis on jobsite cleanliness.
Together, these elements form the foundation of our approach towards ensuring a safe work environment.
We lead the way
To approach safety from a fresh perspective, we begin at the top of our organization. Our senior leaders at Birch Group invest both time and resources into implementing cutting-edge technologies and equipment, while also emphasizing the importance of each individual taking responsibility for creating a culture of safety.
By empowering all employees to prioritize safety, we strive to create a workplace where safety is a collective effort and a shared responsibility.
We watch out for each other
Our aim is for every employee and trade partner to feel a sense of belonging to a unified and collaborative team, working towards a common goal. To foster stronger relationships between our teams and trade partners, we prioritize people and teamwork over processes and checklists.
By emphasizing the importance of collaboration and teamwork, we work towards creating a work environment where everyone feels valued and connected to the greater purpose.
