Creating safe situations begins early in the construction process. For every Winterset project, a site specific work plan is started at the pre-bid investigations. All aspects of construction are analyzed by what hazards may be encountered. The project site is reviewed for personal protective equipment to be mandated and a Safety Site Specific plan is located in the job trailer at each job site. Winterset will develop traffic control plans with the safety of both parties in mind. A staff member not working on a project will often visit the site to review the traffic controls and patterns for the project.

More detailed safety information can be found in the Winterset employee handbook. The company employee handbook is a source of safety/health information, and it is a requirement that all employees read the manual and abide by the safety rules found in it. Winterset has laid out its established rules and programs designed to promote health and safety in the handbook in order to make them known to all employees.
