Why Workplace Safety is Important

Workplace safety is no simple matter, and it’s generally not top of mind to most employees or customers. Arriving at work, grabbing a cup of coffee, mingling with co-workers and then settling down to tackle a current work project are cornerstones of most office scenarios.

Customers see various contractors working in their facilities on ladders or carrying heavy equipment up and down stairs and don’t think twice about it. But what if that ladder tipped over or that water spill on the floor caused a slip and fall accident? Would that grab your attention?

Injury, death, corporate financial loss and property damage are headline grabbing topics when it comes to workplace safety, but often steps taken to keep workers happy and safe happen quietly behind the scenes.

Raimondi Horticultural Group we walk the walk and talk the talk when it comes to safety. As a result, we are proud to announce we were awarded an Overall Gold Performance Level Safety Award from the National Association of Landscape Professionals. The award is presented to companies with no vehicle accidents, no injuries or illness and no days away from work as a result of safety issues. RHG has been consistently recognized by the national association for its safety record.

The personal well-being of our employees and clients is important to us as well. It not only allows us to return home to our family and friends each day but sends a strong message that we care, and that leads to higher employee retention rates and greater productivity. Happy, healthy employees contribute to overall company safety and, quite simply, a more high-performing business.

Being safety-centric is always good for business. We see increased productivity and creativity, and our safety record makes us an attractive company to work for which means we are able to hire the best of the best and that is a benefit to everyone.

Emphasizing good safety practices and personal wellness is good for all of us. And so are indoor spaces designed to improve and positively impact the mood, nutrition, fitness and productivity of employees, guests or just about anyone visiting your facility.

The opportunity to contribute to the creation of thriving spaces that support human health and well-being is at the core of Raimondi Horticultural Group’s interior efforts.

Locally, the Raimondi Horticultural Group employs an experienced team of designers who understand current guidelines and recommendations for quality interior environments including air and water standards.
