In construction, working with subcontractors can be vital to getting the job done right. Collaborating effectively with subs can significantly enhance project outcomes by bringing specialized skills and expertise to the table. However, the road isn’t always smooth; there are potential pitfalls around safety, communication, and payment that need careful navigation. In this episode, we are joined by our Senior Risk Management Consultant Andrew Walters, Chris Velez, the VP of Field Operations at Casey Construction in Gaithersburg, Maryland, as well as Casey Construction’s Safety Director, Karen Brioso. They stop by to talk about the things you should be looking out for before hiring subcontractors, how to effectively communicate on the job-site, what to do if an accident happens, and how to avoid any uncomfortable situations around payments.
