The Southshore Companies are committed to maintaining a safe and healthy work environment. Since 2004, Southshore’s Safety Committee has played an important role in achieving and maintaining a safe and healthy workplace. The committee is comprised of employees representing all levels in the organization and this has been an important factor in its success. Companywide representation gives the committee valuable insight into real and potential safety hazards as well as assisting in creating a companywide safety culture. Each employee is expected to assist in maintaining a safe work environment as a condition of employment and to observe all safety and personal protection measures established by Southshore Companies Safety Committee. 

The Safety Committee holds monthly meetings during which representatives from each warehouse site participate in a conference call. During the call, issues at their site related to safety are discussed including compliance with federal, state and local regulations and industry standards regarding health and safety. The Committee monitors the progress of the implementation of its decisions to insure that the desired level of effectiveness is achieved. 

Numerous safety programs have been developed and refined by the Safety Committee including general safety, hazard communication, personal protective equipment and blood borne pathogens. Southshore employees receive initial training on these programs as well as supplemental safety education and training during monthly safety meetings held at each Southshore site.

The chairman and others assigned by the committee conduct periodic workplace hazard inspections followed by recommendations for improvement. Since the inception of the Safety Committee in 2004, workplace safety at Southshore Companies has steadily improved through safety education and training, workflow improvements and promotion of safety awareness.
