Construction is one of the fastest growing industries right now. Housing crises and increased business activity mean that there is an abundance of work out there, you just need to go and find it. But don’t get complacent and think that anybody can just start a construction company and get rich quick. There are so many mistakes you can make that will bring the whole thing tumbling down, these are some of the top ones.
Ignoring Health And Safety
You’re probably guilty of this already, most construction companies have skipped a few health and safety regulations in their time, but it’s really not worth your time. Some of them are pointless, I don’t disagree with that, but if you get caught breaking any regulations you can get fined or the site will get shut down until everything is bought up to scratch which is just going to lose you money.
You’re also going to lose money if somebody gets injured and you’re a man down for the rest of the job. That’s why most of those health and safety regulations exist. It’s not as much of a problem as it once was because new technology can pick up the slack a lot of the time. However, safety is still important, especially when you’re using heavy machinery. If something goes wrong and somebody gets seriously hurt, you’ll find yourself in a whole world of expensive trouble. Whenever you’re using heavy machinery use decent quality rig mats from somebody like http://northernmat.ca/products/rig-mats/. They’re not expensive and they make the whole operation far safer. Beyond that, you should always be wearing your protective clothing and getting all of your tools safety checked regularly. You already know the regulations, you just need to make sure you stick to them. No Written Contract |
