Safety

Safety is Our Number One Priority at PSL

We respect the levels of safety outlined by each organization we service. We acknowledge that they all have one common goal, which is to protect their property, employees, the public, and most important, the environment.  We fully understand the strict rules and regulations outlined by our customers, and that is why we enforce the same policies and procedures to all of our employees and sub-contractors. With extensive training that focuses on our commitment to safety, we perform daily risk assessments, not only in our own locations, but also at our customer’s facilities. PSL is proud to say we hold a zero % service failure record and an excellent safety rating, with no incidents to date.

You must ensure that your residential, commercial, or industrial property meets regulatory safety standards during the transportation, excavation or demolition phase. Know that all phases of services are performed with data from risk assessments and online safety evaluations, as well as implementation of contractor orientations, contractor polices and more. We want to do our part to keep the public, our employees and the environment safe before, during and after the completion of a contracted project.

PSL believes in safety first. Be aware of the steps we take to make sure your project fulfills all safety expectations.

In-Cab Warning Devices – A commercial vehicle equipped with a dump box capable of rising above 4.15 meters must not be operated on a highway unless it is equipped with a visual or audio warning device that alerts the driver if the dump box is raised and meets all the other requirements set out in the MVAR. For the purposes of this requirement, a vehicle’s height is determined by measuring the distance from the highest point of its dump box when fully raised to the road surface directly below. A similar requirement exists in the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation since 2010. 

Speed Limiters Legislative amendments to the Motor Vehicle Act required heavy commercial vehicles to use a speed limiter. The recently approved order brings this requirement and supporting regulations into force. Under the amended MVAR, speed limiters must be set to a maximum speed of 105 km/h and kept in good working order. The vehicles’ electronic control module must be accurately programmed, and tampering technology is prohibited.
