Safety is Paramount at AAS

Nothing is more important than getting our team home to their families without injury.

With proper planning and training every task should be executed without injury.

Our OSHA 500 Safety manager assists and trains site personnel to be aware of their surroundings to spot/identify potential hazards and reduce risk while performing on site.

All of our field personnel are minimum OSHA 10, Fall protection and CPR Trained prior to doing any task beyond ground work.

All site supervisors are OSHA 30, CPR/First Aid certified, fall protection, TEXO and trained to operate all required equipment and tools utilized.

Site supervisors prepare daily JHA’s and PTP’s for onsite personnel prior to any work commencing.

Supervisors also engage field personnel in weekly Tool Box Talks, which every AAS site employee will be selected to be given a topic of discussion followed by a Q&A session from peers.
