Job Safety
One of the most important aspects of every painting project is safety. At College Works Painting we dedicate time by organizing mandatory comprehensive safety programs for all our painters. Each crew that works on your home carries a Crew Safety binder that includes up-to-date safety guidelines as well as complete procedures for every foreseeable circumstance. Safety meetings are held every seven days in order to update and remind the crews about safe work practices. All Branch Managers and painters employed by College Works Painting have a vested interest in keeping a safe job-site considering that their season bonuses are tied to being safe.
