Safety

We at Hoover Drilling Company believe that no project can be considered a success without all of our employees returning home safely each evening.

We firmly believe the safety of our employees, the environment, the public and our clients cannot be compromised by our operations. For this reason, we will always place safety ahead of our production goals. If a job cannot be accomplished safely, it will not be done. This will be achieved by:

• Utilizing a nationally recognized safety services company that keeps us up-to-date with all safety requirements and information for our industry.
• Teaming with outside safety consultants and risk engineers that share our passion for constantly improving upon our safety culture.
• Ongoing training and continuing education of our workforce.
• Complying with all applicable Federal, State and Local Regulations.
• Providing the support, equipment and materials needed to do a job safely.
• Listening to the needs and concerns of our customers and business associates.

All Hoover Drilling Company employees being responsible to comply with the safety policy and being empowered to report any potential unsafe condition.

Holding supervision and management accountable for the safety performance of employees and maintenance of a safe work environment.
Hoover Drilling Company holds weekly safety meetings every Monday morning that cover industry based discussions and requires our employees to be in attendance, and sign off on their participation in the meetings. By doing this, we are constantly reminding our employees to be aware of their surroundings and act in a safe manner for their own health and others.
We also have quarterly safety meetings to discuss any injuries or problems that may have occurred, and to find solutions to prevent those problems from arising again. At these meetings, employees are doubly encouraged to speak up regarding safety issues and suggestions they may have to make our company an even safer place to work.

We strive very hard to maintain a safe working environment and, while certainly accidents happen, we have been fortunate to have employees who lookout, not only for their own safety, but for the safety of their co-workers, our customers, and the public.

Hoover Drilling Company also complies with DOT regulated drug and alcohol testing of all employees, including pre-employment, random and reasonable suspicion screenings.
