COR & ACSA Certification
As part of our unwavering commitment to safety, Twist Developments is pleased to announce the successful completion of our SECOR certification!
The Alberta Construction Safety Association’s SECOR program is an effective approach employers can take to improve their organization’s health and safety performance, create a workplace culture of proactive health and safety, and reduce the risk and costs associated with workplace incidents.
Twist HSE personnel have worked diligently to develop a tailored health and safety management system (HSMS) to assess all identifiable workplace risks, and to systematically control hazards to protect our employees. This ongoing process will allow us to further our goal of building a workplace culture of proactive, safety-minded workers. We view our strict compliance with the Government of Alberta’s (GOA) occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations as an opportunity to safely grow our business, while promoting continuous improvement.

The Benefits of Twist Safety
H & S Committees
A proper functioning Health and Safety Committee is an integral part of any operational Health and Safety program. It serves as a link between workers, supervisors, and management, ensuring that everyone has a stake in the Health and Safety management system.
PPE
All personnel entering work areas are required to abide by the Alberta Occupational Health and Safety Code Part 18 in correlation with a job hazard analysis. In most cases, personal protective equipment shall be used and maintained in accordance with manufacturer’s specifications.
Maintain Records
There shall be a written record maintained of all aspects of health and safety issues. Records of actions taken are essential in demonstrating due diligence.
Torque Monitoring/ Reporting
As the construction industry continues to evolve, so too have engineers’ requirements. More and more projects are demanding accurate torque reports to ensure that target torques are met. Professional screw pile installations begin with the proper equipment and training for the job. Twist Certified Installers ensure that your project receives engineered screw piles to safely support your structure. All of our CCMC evaluated screw piles are design-tested to achieve the required torques specified by the project engineer. Upon completion, your Twist Certified Installer will provide you with a full torque report outlining the measured torques for each screw pile in an easy to share file. Both engineers and building code inspectors look to these reports to ensure tolerances are met and that foundations are built to code. Our goal is to help ensure your project remains in full compliance. This is a key part of the Twist commitment to public safety.
