The Better Contractor – Safety Training for Tree and Landscape Contractors

Online Safety Training for Your Crew

Safety incidents can be very costly and, if severe enough, could end your business. Unfortunately, we can’t assume that every employee wants to or will work safely. This is where our online safety training and onboarding process is critical. Our program sets the tone for your business and expectations, provides guidelines, and gives employees tips on how to work safely. Not only that, but your customers also know that safety is important. When your crew signs up for The Better Contractor safety training courses, your customers can feel at ease when they choose to work with your company. Completing our training courses lets your employees know that you value their safety and sets a standard of operation. If you are not training your employees, then you are not setting any standard at all – this is not a long-term business model.
