Safety and Certifications
Safety isn’t an afterthought at Buckeye. Every crew we dispatch carries the certifications, follows the daily protocols, and operates within the safety framework our industrial clients require.
Enterprise clients like JSW Steel, Marathon Petroleum, and Energy Transfer maintain strict contractor safety standards on their approved-vendor lists. Buckeye’s program is built to meet those standards year-round, not just at pre-qualification. Our credentials are current, our safety reporting runs through the platforms these clients actually check, and every standard we hold ourselves to is documented and verifiable.
All our certifications are current and maintained as part of our ongoing safety program.
Fill out the form, and Buckeye will send you our safety credentials and compliance documentation.
Before our crew starts work, a daily Job Safety Analysis identifies hazards and sets protocols for the shift. That holds across every service Buckeye performs, from rigging heavy equipment to running code welds in O&G facilities. Weekly safety memos and monthly jobsite inspections keep compliance documented and current.
Our EPRI-certified riggers and signalmen and our UA21- and U5-certified welders carry credentials specific to the safety demands of each trade. Our Zero Tolerance drug program through Nursing Corps covers pre-employment and random testing throughout employment, and all safety reporting runs through ISNetworld for full enterprise client visibility.
What is ISNetworld, and why does it matter when evaluating contractors?
ISNetworld is a contractor safety management platform that enterprise buyers use to track and verify contractor certifications, safety ratings, and compliance history. Buckeye maintains an active profile on ISNetworld, so our standing is accessible to any client running a formal contractor qualification process.
What does EPRI certification mean for industrial rigging?
EPRI, the Electric Power Research Institute, certifies riggers and signalmen to the safety standards the power industry requires for heavy lifts in hazardous environments. Buckeye holds EPRI certification for both riggers and signalmen, making it one of the more complete rigging credentials available for industrial lifting work.
What is a Job Safety Analysis, and how does Buckeye use it?
A Job Safety Analysis is a documented review of a job’s tasks, associated hazards, and the controls in place before work begins. Buckeye conducts a JSA before every shift, producing a daily safety record and ensuring every crew member understands site-specific risks before picking up a tool.
What does Vera Force track for industrial contractors?
Veriforce is a safety compliance platform used by oil and gas and industrial buyers to monitor contractor safety performance, insurance compliance, and regulatory standing. Buckeye’s profile on Vera Force is available to any client who requires platform verification as part of their approval process.
