Plan the work around the people.
Safety belongs in the conversation before work begins and throughout the project.
Commercial construction affects the people doing the work and the people using the building. RAC's approach connects field leadership, trade coordination, building requirements, and communication so responsibilities are understood before activities move forward.
Our safety record.
RAC reports zero incidents since its founding in June 2015, through October 2026.
Start with the conditions of the job.
Access and separation.
Discuss work areas, occupant routes, deliveries, protection, and emergency access with the project and property teams. Phasing should reflect how the building continues to operate.
Clean and organized work areas.
Housekeeping, material storage, cleanup, and protection are part of daily project planning. A well-organized workplace supports the people sharing the site.
Building systems and planned interruptions.
Identify work affecting fire alarms, sprinklers, electrical systems, and other building services early. Coordinate responsibilities, required reviews, testing, and return to service with the appropriate qualified partners and building team.
Work that needs specific controls.
Hot work, energy isolation and lockout/tagout, and other activities require planning appropriate to the task. Discuss the responsible parties, project requirements, and applicable procedures before the work is scheduled.
Occupied buildings need early communication.
Dust, odors, coatings, sprinkler drain-downs, and planned shutdowns can affect neighboring spaces and sensitive occupants. Raise these conditions with the owner and facility team early so they can decide the notices and accommodations needed.
Work hours, protection, phasing, and communication should be part of the project plan.
Leadership means speaking up.
We expect our people to raise concerns, ask questions, and help the team understand changing conditions. Clear communication supports responsible decisions in the field.
