As well as ensuring our employees are trained and competent in their tasks, CHD was also one of the first companies in Canada to adopt the SiteDocs program as their way to incorporate both office and field safety into one.

Our clients have access to this program and can feel confident in CHD's due diligence and commitment to a safe work environment for everyone.
