HEALTH & SAFETY

/

Built on a foundation of safety, quality, and trust.

Safety comes first in everything we do — it's the foundation of the trust our customers place in us, and the reason everyone goes home safe.

Our commitment.

Our goal is zero lost-time incidents. We get there through pre-job planning on every task, stop-work authority for every person on site, and a safety culture that is owned and empowered in the field — not just written in a manual. New markets and new growth never mean new standards: how we work, how we protect each other, and our bar for safety, quality, and environmental practice do not move.

Recognized for safety leadership.

Our safety culture isn't just internal policy — it's independently recognized, year after year, by Ontario's leading health and safety organizations.

ECAO Recognition of Safety Achievement Award

Both EPTCON and PowerTel were named 2026 recipients of the ECAO's Recognition of Safety Achievement Award, which celebrates member companies that maintain injury and illness statistics below the industry average — reflecting a strong culture of prevention and safer jobsites across Ontario.

We consistently perform below industry incident rates and maintain a best-in-class safety record — targeting a Lost Time Injury rate below 1.0, the industry gold standard, while continually striving toward zero.
