Nothing matters more than the safety and wellbeing of our people. Seneca is committed to ensuring a safe and healthy workplace whether in the office, on the road or on any jobsite we are present on. Over the past few years, we have made significant efforts in improving our overall safety results and have created programs, training and education to assist us in our safety journey that requires dedication, commitment and continuous focus.
