At Sunland, Safety is not a changing priority, but a Core Value. Safety is at the heart of every decision we make, and woven into the fabric of our culture. Everyone, from our owners, management team, and board of directors to our newest employee is constantly reminded of our commitment to Safety Excellence for ourselves, our clients, and the communities in which we work. Safety is a constant challenge and Sunland is making every effort to meet that challenge head-on with enhanced programs and dedicated people. The ultimate goal is ZERO Accidents. No accident or injury should be acceptable. We expect all of our employees to champion “Safety Excellence” in each and every action they take.
