About Us

We hire experienced safety professionals and connect them to jobs and employers on demand.

Plenty of staffing firms say safety comes first. We can show you our OSHA logs. Since 2007, ResponsAble Safety Staffing has supplied safety professionals for construction, turnarounds, data centers, and power and utility work across the country.

Who We Are

Large staffing agencies place safety professionals as one line of business among many. Safety services firms place safety personnel as a side offering. ResponsAble is different. Safety staffing isn’t a department here. It’s the whole company, and that focus makes us one of the few dedicated safety staffing firms in the country.

We Help Contractors and Companies:

• Ramp up for big jobs fast.

• Avoid the time and headache of recruiting, screening, hiring, and managing temporary employees.

• Focus on what they do best, because we are tightly focused on what we do best into pride in their work, attentiveness, and better attitudes.

All of our resources are devoted to building and maintaining a strong pool of engaged, well-trained, highly qualified safety personnel that you can draw on at anytime.

Because we are focused on doing one thing really well, we are able to attract and retain higher quality safety employees and provide on-site safety training that exceeds all OSHA standards.

Successful Attitudes Toward Safety

As humans, we instinctively seek to avoid pain and death. When we get too close to a fire and start to intensely feel the heat, we back up. It is instinct. We don’t have to tell ourselves, “Wow, this is hot. Let’s move away!” We just do. Yet, even with this instinct, when it comes…

The Color of Safety

Most of us encounter color cues on a daily basis without consciously recognizing that we are doing it. We stop at a red light, never slow down for the green light, we know that orange and white stripes means that there is road work ahead. We don’t stop and think ‘oh, the light’s red, what…

How To Prevent Heat Illness For A Safety Professional

Are you familiar with the term Nomex? If you work in or around any of the plants in Louisiana, you should be very familiar with the term. Many safety jobs require the use of the Nomex suit, a fire resistant, cut resistant, safety suit made from material created by the company DuPont. We all know what it looks like. Generally it is a full body jumpsuit and is aimed at providing the best protection for the worker.

The flame resistant material, although constructed to be less restrictive and cooler, can’t overcome the heat of Louisiana summers.

So, how do you remain cool when your safety depends on you wearing hot clothes?
