Experts in Safety Management …
Paramount Safety Management Services specializes in the building of Safety Management Systems or enhancing your existing Safety Management System. Today’s theme in any workplace is Hazard Recognition and Control.
Focusing on Leading Indicators is the most productive means of driving your safety program. The use of Trailing Indicators is rarely successful as it relies on injuries and incidents both of which are failures in your system. Today’s challenge is to be proactive.
An effective Safety Management System is Paramount to the success of your business.

“Safety is the #1 priority when operating a Construction Company, as the cost of unsafe labor and unsafe work practices can cripple even the largest and wealthiest of construction companies.
Terry Bochko’s knowledge, experience and communication skills made him the smart choice to ensure we were managing our Health and Safety systems and resources effectively.
Terry’s ability to conduct an Audit with unwavering honesty, cut through the predictable politics and deliver an accurate report on his findings were beyond our expectations.
The identification of softness in leadership, enforcement, inspections, and injury tracking within the company has allowed the expansion and continued development of a thorough Health & Safety Management System.
We have seen great enrichment in the safety culture and documentation procedures we follow, which has allowed us to maintain our edge as the leading Mechanical Contractor in Northwestern Ontario.”

“We have used the services of Paramount Safety Management Services in 2014 and 2015 to fulfill various mandates of consulting, coaching, training and audits on the application of our Health & Safety Management System in our 3 Wood Products mills in Ontario.
With his in-depth knowledge of our management system and specific proactive activities that have been driving the constant and fast improvement of our safety performance since 2012, Mr. Bochko was able to rapidly grasp the major issues in our Ontario sites and successfully fulfill his mandates in accordance with our corporate expectations.
Furthermore, we appreciated his communication skills, his understanding of forest area issues and his active listening and he was able to quickly establish trusting relationships with managers and workers he trained and audited. He was also adept at conveying his findings and recommendations in simple terms, and on a timely basis.
Resolute Forest Products has 2 pulp & paper mills and 3 wood processing mills in Ontario, as well as over 20 sites in Quebec and 11 in the U.S. Our company is now recognized as one of the most rigorous in our North American industry for its health and safety performance, achieving an OSHA recordable injury rate of less than 1.0 since 2013.
In this respect, I would definitely recommend the services of Paramount Safety Management for any needs in health and safety training, coaching and audits, being convinced of the value added and professionalism of services offered.”
