A Foundation for Safer Growth
- National Safety Services Inc.
Eng-Con Holdings Inc., (Eng-Con) a well-established leader in civil construction and earthworks, has earned its reputation through precision, reliability, and a commitment to quality. As the company scaled operations across Western Canada, the demands on its safety systems evolved, prompting a strategic decision to improve its health and safety framework.
To meet this challenge, Eng-Con engaged National Safety Services (NSS), a nationally recognized authority in occupational health and safety consulting and program development. Known for its practical, hands-on approach, NSS brought subject matter expertise, regulatory insight, and real-world experience to the partnership.
National Safety Services began by conducting a comprehensive gap analysis of Eng-Con’s existing safety programs and procedures. This assessment revealed key opportunities to strengthen compliance with Alberta’s Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) legislation and COR requirements, and bring operational practices into alignment with evolving industry standards.
NSS worked collaboratively with Eng-Con’s leadership and field teams to design solutions that were not only compliant, but also realistic and effective for the company’s day-to-day construction environments.
At the heart of the collaboration was the development and implementation of a customized safety management system. This robust framework provided:
The new system gave Eng-Con the foundation to proactively manage workplace risks, increase accountability, and maintain clear documentation for legal defensibility and client assurance.
Through its partnership with NSS, Eng-Con achieved measurable improvements in both compliance performance and incident reduction. More importantly, the collaboration fostered a shift toward a proactive safety culture where safety leadership is embedded in project planning, field supervision, and day-to-day operations.
“Collaborating with EngCon has been a highly positive experience. Their strong commitment to safety, thorough planning, and meticulous execution are evident in every stage of their work. I am impressed by the care and diligence they bring to creating safe, well-managed projects.”
