Le Groupe Gesfor is committed to responding to your most detailed requests and to offering you concrete and long-lasting solutions. Our work is tailored for each one of our partners, because each organization has its own unique needs. This is why we offer customized service: Our team supports your organizational objectives with a simple and safe approach, and our strategies are adjusted to your reality.
From the very start of a construction project, we act to establish a solid foundation for occupational health and safety (OH&S) by creating a prevention program. Then we inspect the worksite, which is one of the aspects of the project's deployment and a crucial step in guaranteeing worker safety.
Once the work has been completed and production operations are up and running, we analyze the OH&S situation by means of audits to assess the compliance or effectiveness of management programs, with the intention of highlighting the main OH&S issues that a client must manage. Afterwards, we offer any support our clients need to develop and implement specific prevention programs (confined spaces, lock-outs/tag-outs, work at heights, etc.).
Finally, we offer customized interactive OH&S training presented by our bilingual consultants and supported by a variety of support tools — case studies, filed exercises, films, photos of your facilities and state-of-the-art computer support.
