In a world of questionable values all you
can do is hope that the people you entrust with not only your business, but
also your safety, will be honest in how they represent themselves and deal
with you. Laser, Inc. was formed with just such issues in mind. Laser’s goal
is and has always been to help improve not just the safety, honesty and
productivity of the Construction Industry, but to try to ensure that
contractors conduct business in a forthright and conscientious manner.
Utilizing resources such as OSHA, MSHA, local courts, and assorted public
offices, Laser has compiled detailed histories of numerous contractors
working in various fields of the Construction Industry. Is there a need for
this type of information? Until contractors voluntarily provide or are
manditated by more than just integrity to provide honest information
regarding their work performance; the answer is a resounding YES!
Laser hopes that the information contained in the Contractors Critic will
benefit the construction client when the time comes to choose
the appropriate, responsible bidder for the job at hand. But more than
that, Laser hopes that eventually the companies mentioned in these issues
come to realize the value of fair dealings in the Construction Industry.
There is more than money at stake!
This information is important to construction customers. The construction
customer is legally liable for ensuring that Menninga’s workers are employed
at a safe work place. If not, you can be sued by injured Menninga’s workers.
This information places a heavy burden on Menninga’s customers, because a
review of OSHA data shows that in many instances, Menninga itself has
allowed unsafe work sites. This means that Menninga’s customers will have to
work twice as hard to protect Menninga’s own workers from unsafe work
practices and protect themselves from court cases filed by injured Menninga
workers.
