Industrial Workplace Safety

James Machine Works is proud to have been awarded the LWCC Safest 70 award again for 2024! This is the eighth time that JMW has received this prestigious award. At James Machine Works, Safety is No. 1.

Our Commitment to Industrial Workplace Safety in Fabrication

James Machine Works has always believed in doing the right thing. What started as a small machine shop in 1927 has grown into a multi-faceted operation that provides design, fabrication, and installation of pressure vessels used throughout the chemical industry, refineries, and pulp paper industry. Today, this woman-owned, woman-led company has never lost sight of its top priority: the safety of their employees.

In an industry known for safety hazards like elevated lights, exposure to weather, working in confined spaces, and routinely handling materials weighing hundreds or thousands of pounds, JMW has an exceptional reputation for safety and it’s making significant changes on more than one front.

JMW has been awarded the 2018 Contractor Safety Award by the Golden Triangle Business Roundtable of southeast Texas. JMW was nominated for this award by Motiva Enterprises.

Industrial Workplace Safety in Fabrication

At James Machine Works, industrial workplace safety in fabrication guides every project we complete. Since 1927, we have built a culture that puts safety first. Our team maintains strict safety standards, invests in ongoing employee training, and follows proven accident prevention practices every day.

Every employee has the authority to stop work if they identify a safety concern. Additionally, we encourage open communication so our team can identify risks and improve our processes. Because safety is a condition of employment, every employee uses the proper tools, follows established procedures, and works to complete each job safely and efficiently

Safety You Can Trust

Our commitment to safety extends across all fabrication, machining, field services, and maintenance projects. James Machine Works is proud to be a member of the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). At James Machine Works, safety is more than a policy, it’s a commitment to protecting our employees, customers, and every project we complete.

We also stay current with industry best practices through our memberships with the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Over the years, our dedication has earned the LWCC Safest 70 Award multiple times, the 2017 Contractor Safety Award from the Golden Triangle Business Roundtable, and OSHA SHARP designation.

Most importantly, we never treat safety as just another policy. Instead, we make it a core value that guides every decision and every project.
