A safety-first mindset is essential at Tilcon Connecticut. Our people do the right thing even when no one is looking. We have established a process of open communication with a commitment to safety that includes a pledge of personal responsibility. We expect to work as a team, watch out for each other, speak up when we SEE an unsafe condition, and if we do, STOP immediately and DO something to correct it.

Safety Training

Training is the foundation to achieving Zero Harm. We believe that in-class education, hands-on training, and providing industry-leading personal protective equipment to our employees can help prevent and avoid hazards that have the potential to cause serious harm.
