The Power to STOP!
Every Nelson Pipeline Constructors employee possesses “stop work” authority on any job site should they believe a threat to worker’s safety exists.
The team and their immediate supervisor discuss the threat and develop a plan to complete the task safely. All must agree to the plan before work resumes.

- Excavations and trenching
