Construction professionals are realizing that safety, productivity, and quality are inextricably linked, and are moving to implement programs that go beyond regulatory compliance and take a more active approach towards protecting their employees in the field. In this course, instructor Jim Rogers presents safety as something that must be actively managed in conjunction with quality and productivity, and discusses the role the construction manager needs to play in the process.
