Company Profile It is the policy of Shannon Trading & Contracting to provide and maintain a safe and healthy working environment for all employees on all of Shannon projects and worksites.

All contractors and subcontractors are also expected to comply with the state of Qatar regulations and are monitored throughout the project for conformance. Contractors and subcontractors are not allowed on site without a current certificate of insurance that has terms and limits that are satisfactory to the owner. Also, contractors and subcontractors are required to have their own company's safety program on site and in force at all times.

Shannon is a firm believer that Safety is Number One priority on every project and performs accordingly.

  • Job specific safety training
  • Weekly/Monthly jobsite safety meetings

One of the most important parts of Shannon safety program is enforcement and monitoring by the on-site superintendent. Each of Shannon superintendents has extensive training that includes safe practices for construction, scaffold erection, confined space entry, lock out/ tag out, fall protection, MSDS & Hazardous/Com and proper excavation.

  • Daily safety monitoring by Shannon on-site superintendent and regular inspections during the project manager's site visits.
