Treat everyone the same, be kind and patient, communicate clearly and frequently. There are just some rules at Alder we aren’t willing to bend on, and frankly, that is what makes us so ahead of the curve when it comes to safety on the AOA — or anywhere!
It’s true. Alder boasts a near-perfect safety record, and we attribute that to the way we treat our workers: with humanity, respect and compassion. They are not words that are often used to describe construction and aviation fields, but perhaps they are words we have needed in our industry lexicon for a long time. The truth is: being kind works on everyone, in every situation, and we need more of it in the skilled trades and seasonal labor fields.
To get the conversation moving, we created an eye-opening, powerful guide for leaders looking to improve the well-being of skilled workers and seasonal laborers. “Happiness on site” is a free resource for anyone looking to improve working conditions across the spectrum of labor.
