Tree Planting Safety Guidelines

Introduction |  Expectations | Leadership | Safety | Ergonomics | Comfort | Celebration

Our Primary Safety Goal:
At Summit, we adhere to the principle that no task is worth risking injury. Our primary safety objective is to achieve zero accidents. Safety is our utmost priority, and we have invested significant time and effort in the development of our safety protocols.

Training:
To ensure our employees are well-prepared, comprehensive training is provided at the beginning of each planting season. This training covers essential areas such as bear awareness, emergency evacuation protocols, emergency procedures, and safety measures specific to cut blocks. Planters are educated on their roles in maintaining our rigorous health and safety program. Summit's personnel are trained to various certification levels, including OFA Level III, WHMIS, Transportation of Dangerous Goods, FAC/PAL, and Danger Tree Assessment.

Health and Safety Program:
Our Health and Safety Program is an integral part of our operational approach, not an added feature. It was developed with consideration for all aspects of our operations. We uphold high safety standards through regular inspections, monitoring, reporting, and ongoing training.
  • Summit is proud to be certified as a SAFE Company in BC and holds a PIR COR in Alberta.
  • Our company's Health & Safety Policy outlines our safety commitments and the shared responsibilities we have in upholding them.
  • For a concise summary of Summit's safety principles, the BC Forest Safety Council's Forest Safety Accord provides an informative overview.
