Corporate Safety Program

The nature of our work commands a culture of safety to ensure that employees are safe no matter where their location or job function — whether a staff member is stationed at a field jobsite or works in an office environment.

Gannett Fleming abides by its corporate Safety and Health Policy, which was originally adopted by the Gannett Fleming Board of Directors in 2001. With significant input and ongoing effort from the firm’s Corporate Safety Group and Safety Committee, the firm provides employees with safety programs and safe workplace practices.

Behavior-Based Safety

Gannett Fleming has employed a proprietary behavior-based safety program called Loss Prevention System (LPS) for more than ten years for numerous projects. We have a certified LPS trainer on staff and train our own staff for clients that use the LPS system. LPS focuses on identifying and mitigating hazards in Job Loss Analysis documents and during Loss Prevention Observations with the goal of striving towards incident-free operations.

Safety at Work and at Home

Safety takes a forefront on the firm's strategic action plan, and each year the company designates safety as the theme of one of the firm's employee-focused celebrations. In 2011, employees took part in several activities to promote safety and awareness at work and at home. Events at the corporate headquarters in Harrisburg, Pa., included fire extinguisher training, bicycle safety training, sobriety tests with drinking goggles, and training on the appropriate procedures for accident reporting. Offices around the country celebrated with other unique activities to promote employee safety.
