Safety starts with preparation.

Yesterday, TCG’s Director of Safety, Josh Wilson, led a confined space awareness training in partnership with OSHA and hosted by the Wyndmoor Fire Department. The session combined classroom instruction with hands-on field exercises to reinforce safe practices and emergency preparedness in confined space environments.

Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make the training a success. At TCG, safety is always the priority and we all go home at the end of the day.
