Prioritizing Safety to Deliver Superior Results for Our Clients

At GES and Eagle Drilling, safety isn’t just a policy, it’s a cornerstone of how we deliver value to our clients. As a leading geotechnical engineering, construction materials testing, environmental consulting, and drilling services provider, we operate in environments that demand vigilance, preparation, and accountability. Whether on active construction sites, in a laboratory, or on drilling rigs, the safety of our team, and, by extension, the success of your projects is top of mind.

 

Safety as a Competitive Advantage for Our Clients

For our clients, safety is more than a buzzword; it’s a tangible benefit that impacts project outcomes. A strong safety culture promotes all work, from field investigations to laboratory testing to drilling operations, being completed with care and reliability. When safety is a priority, the results can mean fewer delays, fewer disruptions, and more quality outcomes for your projects. 

At GES and Eagle Drilling, safety isn’t just about compliance, it’s embedded in our core values: Humility, Courage, Respect, Honesty, and Safety. These values guide every decision we make, promoting that each step of the project lifecycle is executed to industry standards. Our team lives these values daily, which means clients can trust that their projects are in good hands, safe hands.

How “Double Down on Safety” Benefits You

This Fall, we’re launching our “Double Down on Safety” initiative. It’s not just about avoiding accidents; it’s about creating a culture of proactive awareness where complacency about safety is prevented. Our goal is clear: zero reportable injuries and enhanced vigilance that ultimately safeguards the success of your projects.

The benefits to our clients are clear:

  • Reduced Risk: By focusing on proactive safety measures, we significantly reduce the chances of costly accidents that can disrupt project timelines or incur unexpected costs.
  • Consistent Quality: A culture of safety keeps our team’s attention sharp and consistent, maintaining the industry standards you expect.
  • On-time, On-budget Projects: When safety is prioritized, we reduce the risk of delays and inefficiencies, so your projects stay on track.

One of the ways we promote safety is through our quarterly Staff Star event, where employees nominate peers who exemplify our core values, including safety. We also incentivize safety audit participation with prize drawings to keep safety at the forefront of every team member’s mind. These initiatives encourage everyone, from the field to the office, to be fully engaged in preventing accidents and minimizing risks.

As of today, GES has proudly gone 7,528 days without a lost-time accident and Eagle Drilling 1,592 days, milestones that are displayed in our offices as a testament to our commitment to safety. This track record translates to peace of mind for our clients, knowing that we are protecting both our people and your investment.

A Partnership Built on Trust and Safety

The “Double Down on Safety” campaign is more than an internal initiative; it’s a way to continuously improve the safety protocols that affect every client project. By strengthening our safety culture, we give you the confidence that your projects are being handled by a team that prioritizes safety, reducing risks and focusing on outcomes.

When you partner with GES and Eagle Drilling, you’re not just hiring a service provider; you’re gaining a trusted partner committed to your project’s success. Our dedication to safety is your assurance that we’re delivering results with care and reliability.
