Over the past three years, Lane has managed over twenty five million employee hours with a minimal number of lost time hours. The Lane Construction Corporation has a Corporate Safety Program with Safety Orientation for all employees including specific needs as dictated by each project. This program has been extremely successful with our current interstate experience modification at 0.63. This is especially significant since more then 75% of our work is self performed. The Lane Construction Corporation has achieved a Reportable Incident Rate of 2.9 per 100 workers, and a Lost Time Rate of 0.6 per 100 workers based on 7,905,337 man hours worked. These statistics are well below the published Bureau of Labor Statistics data for the same trade classifications.

The Lane Construction Corporation considers the safety of its employees and the general public to be a matter of prime importance. Even though a good safety record is essential, the ultimate goal is to provide a healthy and safe environment for all employees. We also work hard to comply with all applicable Federal, State and local requirements, and be guided by good practice as necessary for location and circumstances.

Lane's corporate Safety Program is coordinated by our Director of Corporate Safety based in our home office reporting directly to the Vice President-Legal. The responsibility for safety extends from top management to trade workers including everyone in between. The Project Manager at each Lane project has overall responsibility for conducting a safe worksite. Area or Project Safety Supervisors carry out the day-to-day activities required to ensure that the workplace is in compliance with the corporate Safety Program.

Since 1987, Lane has consistently outperformed national and industry safety statistics and performance goals. We are the recipient of various awards including recognition for some projects that have achieved 1 million man hours worked without a lost time incident. These achievements reflect on the overall operation of Lane's plants and projects, always striving to improve our safety record.
