SAFETY

CAPEX Construction approaches safety from the highest standards in the industry. Our founders started CAPEX with a firm foundation of safety adherence, implementing military-grade regulation from prior experience to ensure the upmost attention to safety protocols and performance.

Protocols

CAPEX ensures subcontractors and clients are given the proper support and attention they deserve to ensure full-scale safety measures in every step of a project. Clear instructions are provided from OSHA 10/30 hour certifications that provide unparalleled standards of on-site conduct.

Performance

CAPEX is on track to meet industry standards of excellence for major benchmarks, including Experience Modification Rate (EMR), Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR), and Lost-Time Frequency Rate (LTFR). Efforts are constantly being reevaluated to ensure some of the lowest incident ratings in the construction industry.
