The management of Miller Pipeline has not only identified employee safety as one of the company’s core values, but they have placed it at the top of the list. This has not just been done in writing, but more importantly it is clearly visible through the company’s actions.
Just like most top performing companies, Miller Pipeline complies with all federal and state safety regulations (e.g. maintaining written programs, ensuring that all required training is complete, providing necessary safety equipment, facilitating safety meetings, conducting jobsite inspections, maintaining equipment in safe condition, etc).
