Safer Together

Terracon is passionate about your safety before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. As Terracon continues to move forward and grow through this time, we are continuing to take every precaution to ensure the safety of our employee-owners. If you are as committed to your success as we are committed to your safety, then Terracon is the company for you!

Our goal has not changed. For Terracon, our guiding principle has been and will continue to be the safety of our employee-owners. It’s that simple. We want our employees to be able to work safely in every situation and go home safely each night. As we continue our vision of being “Best at People,” here are some of the measures Terracon is taking to safeguard every employee-owner:

• Ongoing communication with ALL employee-owners on a dedicated COVID Response page, and a portal for their families to have access to resources as well
• Requiring specific COVID-19 Pre-Task Safety Planning Protocols for all tasks and projects
• Empowering employees to speak up and “say no” to working in unsafe conditions
• Providing an additional 40 hours of sick leave to anyone impacted by COVID-19, including those impacted by daycare and school closures
• Offering voluntary reduced work schedule for anyone needing extra time to care for others
• Load-leveling work assignments across regions to maintain high productivity and chargeability
• Ensuring proper PPE and sanitation on all project sites by providing field employee-owners with mobile hand-washing stations and supplies, masks, and sanitizing kits
• Utilizing technology and innovation for more remote work opportunities, using everything from video conferencing to drones
• Following all CDC guidelines, including social distancing on job sites, in offices, and in our labs
• Implementing a stand-by leave program to ensure our employees continue service and health insurance benefits during regional work shortages
