Data-Driven
Safety From Fab to Field
At Banker Steel, we do not wait for incidents to happen. Our culture is built around proactive risk recognition and mitigation, ensuring our people, partners, and the public are protected on every project we deliver.
Through rigorous preconstruction safety planning, data-driven programs, and disciplined project coordination, potential hazards are identified early so teams can perform complex structural work safely and efficiently, often within the tight constraints of dense urban environments.
Data-Driven
Safety
We strengthen our safety programs across every shop and jobsite through continuous evaluation of real-time data.
At Banker Steel, we accomplish this by:
- Using information from leading indicators like employee safety observations and near misses to prevent incidents.
- Capturing and investigating all incident in a tracking system to ensure that corrective measures are assigned and implemented.
- Identifying potential high impact activities to evaluate and mitigate associated risks.
Customized Risk Reduction
Recognizing that each shop and jobsite presents unique hazards, we perform risk assessments for every aspect of our work, including:
- The Fabrication, Shipping, and Erection of Steel
- Material Handling
- Coating Operations
- Crane Use and Rigging
- Fall Protection and Prevention
Safety Executed Daily
Safety at Banker Steel is a daily commitment, not a destination. Our goal is simple: Everyone goes home safely every day.
- Site-specific orientation and training
- Onsite safety personnel
- Pre-task plans before every activity
- Routine safety audits
Field Safety Means and Methods
Inside of New York City, we utilize innovative safety methods to protect workers and the public.
Perimeter Safety Cocoon
A hydraulically operated system, the safety cocoon climbs the structure as erection progresses upward, maintaining continuous perimeter protection throughout the erection process.
Stair Towers
Safe, continuous access to floors not yet serviced by a hoist.
Internal Core Platforms
Protect workers below the working floor as well as the ironworkers constructing the tower. Also allows consolidation of equipment and tools while continuously jumping onto the next floor.
