  • Safety is not a result. It is a part of all operations, equally as important as sales and costs. It is practiced by all employees in every operational task. Management undertakes to provide a safe working environment. Managers and supervisors are accountable for developing a safety-conscious attitude in all employees. Individual safety means working in a safe manner at all times. This is how the system of safety functions in all operations.

    We must respond in a timely and effective manner to any environmental incident.

    Waste products will be disposed of using only approved procedures and waste treatment facilities.

    Is directed at a worker

    Is made on a basis of race, creed, religion, colour, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, family status, disability, physical size or weight, age, nationality, ancestry or place of origin

 Safety On The Road

Safety is an essential part of NRT operations and our drivers
ensure our safety measures are upheld.

Our drivers are well-equipped and rigorously trained for the challenge of getting each load safely to its destination.

NRT’s high safety standards and ongoing training pay off. Our drivers travel in excess of eight million miles a year on winding gravel roads, busy highways, and desolate ice roads. They assume responsibility for the day-to-day safety of their trucks, with routine checks.

All of our drivers go through a company training and certification process to ensure excellence on the road. Training is ongoing throughout their career and drivers are continuously taking recertification courses as needed.
