Today is day 3 of our climbing and rigging certification and recertification and we practiced hands-on training for a ground-based rescue and tomorrow, we’ll put our skills learned to the test by practicing on a real tower. It’s important for students to become familiarized with the fundamental concepts of rope rescue principles before they have to do it in the real world. 𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚢 𝚃𝚞𝚗𝚎𝚍! 𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝚝𝚘 𝚌𝚘𝚖𝚎... Rise Above.

As we embark on the new year, our commitment to safety continues, highlighted by the hosting of two impactful Safe Start meetings that prioritize the well-being of our employees. The first session took place on January 3rd at the Pomeroy Conference Centre in Fort St John, BC, establishing a safety focused tone for the year ahead. Subsequently, on January 4th, a second meeting was held in Grande Prairie, AB, specifically tailored for the STRAIT/IDEAL Coating group. This annual Safe Start tradition serves as a pivotal event, delineating and reinforcing our collective dedication to upholding a safe working environment. This year's events proved particularly enriching, featuring distinguished guest speakers who shared invaluable insights. Corey Hirsch discussed the critical topic of mental health with his presentation "The Save of My Life," while Rick Sikora of Crane Masters discussed rigging safety. Additionally, Mohamed Zayani from CWB enlightened attendees on hydrotesting procedures, and George McGhie from Energy Safety Canada offered his perspectives on human and organizational performance. Vance Whitley contributed insights from the apprenticeship trades in Alberta, and Adele Tait from the Government of Alberta OH&S provided crucial information on investigation resolutions. STRAIT/IDEAL Coatings dedication to safety extends beyond mere words, as we embrace a proactive approach to ensure a safe and healthy workplace for all employees. Have a Safe Year ! #IDEALCoatings #Safety #Dedication #Commitment #Quality
