Construction Site Shelters

Construction site shelters protect workers from common job perils and sporadic weather. While safety engineers go above and beyond protecting workers from anticipated dangers, chaos and dangers persist. More than 2.6 million workers are injured on American jobsites annually. Moreover, one in 100 workers will sustain serious injury necessitating work leave. Tornadoes and sever weather are other immeasurable variables threatening worker safety. Our construction site shelters can safely accommodate various-sized workforces without depleting the bottom line or impeding daily operations.

Does My Company Need Tornado Protection?

While federal safety regulators don’t require onsite tornado protection, changing storm dynamics doesn’t absolve company responsibility for protecting workers. Knowingly placing vulnerable personnel in dangerous working conditions could result in hefty civil penalties, litigation, and settling pricy lawsuits, instead of what matters most – getting back to work and recruiting new clients. Although authorities having jurisdiction don’t criminalize inferior storm protection, the federal government incentivizes employee protection by offering safe room reimbursement for qualified applicants. Construction site shelters can also serve as remote work offices and centralized staging areas for remote operations. ,

Construction Site Shelters Protect Employees, Morale, and Company Reputation

Not all publicity is good publicity. Improper employee storm protection might not result in fines, but persistent press coverage could deter otherwise agreeable clients. Construction site shelters also instill good vibes while boosting employee morale, retaining experienced workers while improving your company’s Indeed profile and worker reviews.

A Widening Tornado Alley

Tornado Alley isn’t limited to the Midwest. Warming weather patterns and longer storm seasons are expanding Tornado Alley to the southeast and Ohio River Valley. Construction zones are easy targets for tornadoes. Tornadoes and high winds can easily topple towering scaffolding and unsecured equipment. Moreover, most severe storms strike during the early afternoon as employees return from lunch. Skilled project managers can easily locate construction site shelters near operations without crowding the jobsite.

Rent vs Owning

Construction jobs are as much logistical maneuvering as building. Buying the correct tools, finding the right building materials, and hiring the best employees engender timely project completion and professionalism. Securing compliant tornado protection shouldn’t delineate excessive project management time. Construction site shelter rentals are best for temporary job operations, such as seasonal construction and remote operations. Permanent tornado shelters benefit permanent locations, such as manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and community centers. Moreover, renting costs a fraction as buying, although we also sell various-sized tornado shelters. Take back the safety and control at the job.
