By most accounts, roofing contractors have one of the most dangerous jobs in the United States — generally ranked within the top five or six on any most-dangerous job list. To put it into perspective, that’s typically ahead of fighting fires or fighting the enemy as an enlisted soldier.
To stay in business, roofing contractors need to keep the qualified, skilled workers they do have safe, and almost all talk a good game when it comes it making safety a priority. However, few embrace it as strongly as an organization like the employees at Evans Roofing Co., where from top to bottom, the mission is clear: adhering to safety protocols that exceed the industry standard is a way of life.
