Why Saw and Blade Safety Training Matters


"We've been in the saw and blade business for over 30 years. We've developed great expertise and we help contractors saw and drill successfully. One of the real important things when it comes to sawing is safety. Contractors want to get jobs done on time and on budget, but 100% number one, they want to make sure that their people are safe.At Esch, we built a great saw blade safety training program that helps support contractors in that regard. We developed this program over 10 years ago when one of our contractors lost an employee to a tragic saw kickback accident. That was the day that we began to write our program. Since that day we've done hundreds of saw & blade safety trainings, and we've learned a tremendous amount while doing those trainings from contractors about situations they face. We're here to support contractors so they can maintain their stellar safety record they can avoid OSHA fines, and most importantly, send their people home at night safely.
