Safety is a broad field encompassing a vast array of potential hazards and potentially-hazardous work activities. Rather than submitting to the temptation to “generalize,” Jurgiel has instead developed into a “multi-specialist” firm, with practical knowledge and hands-on expertise in the identification and control of a variety of hazards that span multiple industries.
These include:
Construction Safety is a multi-faceted pursuit and Jurgiel is proud to say that it has considerable experience throughout this field. Over the years, Jurgiel personnel have assisted clients with many aspects of risk reduction related to:
The backbone of a company’s safety initiative is its written program. It not only sets the overall expectations, it also serves as the guide for decision making in daily operations.

Jurgiel & Associates has conducted regulatory compliance assessments and occupational safety consulting for over four decades with the goal of:
For clients facing regulatory action by the government, Jurgiel has reviewed OSHA citations, participated in informal conferences, and assisted with the implementation of corrective actions.
For those striving for Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) certification, Jurgiel can assist with strategy development, identification of necessary processes and procedures, and preparation of documentation and training.
Jurgiel has written numerous SSHPs for construction, renovation, and remediation projects where those documents were required, either as part of the bid package or to fulfill the client’s own internal policy. Because company owners, project managers, and general contractors all want an SSHP that has a real chance at preventing injuries and illnesses, Jurgiel takes the time to research and understand the nature of the project and to assemble a set of customized requirements that can mitigate risk rather than simply checking a box.
Jurgiel & Associates is proud to provide consulting services to its clients who are specifically governed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA). With Jurgiel’s aid, these companies continually seek to reduce the risk of injury and illness to their employees who are exposed on a daily basis to the unique conditions that can exist in both surface and underground mines.
