Safety

Keeping you safe. Keeping communities safe. Keeping us safe.

Lightower is completely focused on the safe, reliable, and efficient management of communications infrastructure construction and maintenance. We are proud to be an industry leader with an excellent lost time incidents (LTI) record that spans over ten years of operational experience.

Safety at Lightower is priority #1.

We work in inherently hazardous environments:

• Fiber delivery & splicing
• Facilities management
• Lateral build and construction
• Electric space on distribution poles and streetlights
  
• Wireless construction on towers, water tanks, and rooftops
• Tower development and construction
  

That's why we require our senior management team to conduct monthly safety tours. The purpose is to ensure the safety of every project, by identifying unsafe behaviors and unmitigated hazards, and then communicating all observations to our staff and contractors so that we all learn, correct, and prevent future occurrences of potentially dangerous situations.

Our rigorous safety program, designed to help ensure the safety of our personnel, contractors, and the communities we serve, applies across all of our various lines of business and includes:

• Clear assignment of responsibilities
• Training & communication
• Daily job safety briefs
• Eliminating unsafe behaviors and hazards
• Enforcing safety policies and procedures
• Maintaining a safe working environment
• Recognizing and affirming safe work performance
