Future First
At Frampton, family is at the root of everything we do. We’re a family-owned company, and we care deeply about our people and their loved ones. That’s why we’ve made a pledge to ensure everyone who sets foot on a jobsite, from team members to trade partners to visitors, returns home safely to their families every single day.
Forged from experience accrued across 28 years and hundreds of safely executed projects, our Future First safety program is designed to prevent workplace incidents, injuries, and illnesses. Our goal: zero incidents, zero accidents.
By making commitments today, we’re building a safer tomorrow.
A Culture Of Safety
At Frampton Construction, safety is not optional. We’ve created a strong culture of safety in our offices and on our jobsites through practices like toolbox talks, safety stand-downs, and safety recognition luncheons. Most of all, our team members do not look the other way. Every employee, regardless of position or tenure, is empowered to stop work until a safety issue is resolved.
Training Standards
Frampton’s field personnel are certified in First Aid, CPR and 30-hour OSHA training. Additionally, all of our superintendents are Procore Safety Qualified and have completed Fall Protection Awareness Training. Beyond these standards, our team members regularly participate in additional training to prepare for project-specific challenges.
Toolbox Safety Talks
Safety starts with communication. Every Tuesday, work on all of our jobsites begins with a toolbox safety talk. This is a time when our team discusses a fundamental element of workplace safety and covers the tasks and challenges ahead for that week.
Experience Modification Rate (EMR)
EMR is a construction safety metric used by the insurance industry to measure workers compensation risk. Anything lower than the industry average of 1.0 is considered exceptional. At Frampton, we’re proud to consistently maintain an EMR well below the national average and in the industry superior range.
"In our industry, it’s imperative to look at everything through a lens of safety. Safety is something we will never take for granted and never sacrifice."
