A Culture of Safety
Lucas Tree provides safe, high-quality vegetation management services. Every decision we make begins and ends by considering worker and customer safety.
First, Believe in ZERO
Safety is our number one core value. We’re uncompromising in our commitment to the health and safety of our employees, subcontractors, customers, and community. We require individual accountability, expect all employees to adhere to our safety standards, and actively participate in and support the advancement of our health and safety practices. After all, safety is the responsibility of all employees—from top management to the field worker. “Believe in ZERO” results in a SAFE day, a SAFE tomorrow, a SAFE year, and a SAFE career.
Safety Protocol
Safety Takes Every Person (S.T.E.P.)
Safety starts at new employee orientation where we introduce our safety protocol called Safety Takes Every Person (S.T.E.P.). It focuses on:
Commitment
Accountability
Responsibility
Continuous Improvement
Certified Treecare Safety Professionals at Each Worksite
Each Lucas Tree job is supported by our safety department and a team of dedicated Certified Treecare Safety Professionals (CTSP), whose job it is to oversee the safety of the worksite. Each safety professional graduated from the only safety credentialing program in the industry, paid for by Lucas.
Take Safety Home With You
