Milnes Companies have an in-house, qualified OSHA safety trainer.  All project managers, general superintendents, and field superintendents are required to complete OSHA’s ten and thirty hour training program.  All field employees complete the ten hour training.  Additionally, all superintendents are trained in CPR and First Aid.

The Milnes Companies ultimate goal is ZERO Injuries, and by striving to achieve this goal both employees and clients will benefit.
