Safety Policies Procedures

The Zero-Breese Company has earned the reputation as one of the safest roofing and sheet metal contractors in the country. Safe performance does not happen by chance. Like anything else, it takes advance planning and focus from all of our staff -- starting at the top. Just like quality, our employees maintain an attitude that safety is a high priority. In addition to the protection of our own employees, we do our utmost to protect the safety and health of others.
