We thoroughly enjoyed hosting our guests from HITT Contracting for this sneak peek behind the scenes of Murray Company’s successful operations. #fabtour #expanding #fabrication #partnerships #buildlingtogether #advancedtech #leaders #premiercontractor

Today we come together, regardless of background, to remember those who defended our freedom. This Memorial Day, may we gain a deeper understanding of the wars these heroes fought, and the sacrifices they made. For the families that mourn a fallen hero, we wish you healing and peace.

In partnership with McCarthy Building Companies, Inc., we accomplished something great in the realm of healthcare in Orange County. The Joe C. Wen and Family Center for Advanced Care at UCI Health has officially opened its doors offering wide ranging services from audiology to cardiology, pain management and imaging, sports medicine to urgent care. This project is a one-stop destination for many healthcare needs. Murray Company is so proud to have diversity in common! As a specialty contractor, we offer a myriad of services to our top-tier clients from plumbing to HVAC, jet fuel to process piping, medical gas to biopharma and civil utilities to fuel-oil scopes of work. We are privileged to display our healthcare expertise on this 5-story, 168K square-foot outpatient facility offering an arsenal of specialty clinical services to its patients.  #healthcare #revolutionary #plumbing #hvac #medicalgas #processpiping #partnerships #hospitals #urgencarefacility #orangecounty  

We’re anchored not only by our mission statement but by our safety culture, too. Aerial Lift Safety is yet another topic on OSHA’s National Stand-Down week-long campaign and our field crews addressed this subject from the ground up. Teams discussed the gravity of standing firmly on the floor of baskets, and avoiding sitting or climbing on edges of planks, baskets, ladders, guardrails, or other devices for work positions. Body belts were addressed and when/how to use them. Over 1,100 of our skilled union craftsmen are well versed in aerial safety, but a refresher is always beneficial. Our goal is to be 100% compliant with OSHA’s requirements as set forth in their statutes, standards and regulations.   Friday’s Featured Projects: Children’s Hospital Orange County - Southwest Tower - Orange, CA Midfield Satellite Concourse (MSC) South – Los Angeles, CA   #aerielliftsafety #followtherules #safety #tether #anchored #harness #lanyard #standards #fallarrest #stoppingfalls #alwaysanchored #craftworkers #unionstrong 

Last Thursday's meetings provoked a lot of meaningful conversation about “Preventing Slips in the Workplace”. This is an especially critical topic because in the United States alone, over one million people visit the emergency room each year for injuries sustained in slip and fall accidents which translates to 2,000 people each day.  According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2021, there were just over 1,000 slips, trips and fatalities in the construction industry. These numbers are significantly too high, so it is our sincere and concerted mission to ensure that Murray Company personnel are never ever included in this count. Thank you to everyone who actively participated in this conversation. #Safety #safety247 #nationalsafetystanddown #preventingslips #preventtrips #preventfallsinconstruction #weloveourpeople #gohomesafe #dontbeastatistic #norcal #socal #bayarea #constructionsafetyweek #california #arizona #nevada #colorado #fullservicecontractor

Mid-week our field teams across California, Arizona and Colorado, on a couple hundred active Murray Company projects, discussed “Covers for Holes". This was the important topic on the menu that day as part of OSHA’s National Safety Stand Down campaign to prevent falls in construction.   Wednesday’s Featured Projects: Hyperion Wastewater Treatment Plant – Playa Del Rey, CA AMAT Campus – Sunnyvale, CA Midfield Satellite Concourse (MSC) South – Los Angeles, CA   #Safety #safety247 #nationalsafetystanddown #coversforholes #preventfallsinconstruction #weloveourpeople #gohomesafe #dontbeastatistic #norcal #socal #bayarea #constructionsafetyweek #california #arizona #nevada #colorado #fullservicecontractor

In order to Stand Down for Safety, we must Stand Up safely and properly on ladders. “Avoiding Falls from Portable Ladders” was Tuesday’s topic of discussion. Murray Company’s crews discussed the use, care, storage and proper posture on ladders. The importance of not overreaching was addressed as well as ladder safety at home. Safety doesn’t begin or stop at work and in the field; it is truly a lifestyle and a standard we should employ everywhere and always. Tuesday’s Featured Projects: AMAT Campus – Sunnyvale, CA LAX Terminal 4 – Los Angeles, CA Interesting fact: In 2023, the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons reported that 500,000 people were treated for ladder-related injuries, with 300 of these incidents proving fatal. Be safe – don’t be a statistic.   #Safety #safety247 #laddersafety #ladders #properuse #nationalsafetystanddown #avoidingfalls #portableladders #weloveourpeople #gohomesafe #dontbeastatistic #norcal #socal #bayarea #constructionsafetyweek #california #arizona #nevada #colorado #fullservicecontractor  

It’s no secret that the construction industry across the nation is Standing Down for Safety this week. We are following along OSHA’s National Safety initiative across all of Murray Company’s active projects. Monday’s hot topic was Fall Protection Training. Our Safety Managers and field crews kicked off the day emphasizing the strict safety protocols we have in place to ensure we always adhere to all fall protection guidelines. The safety of our crews across California, Arizona, Nevada and Colorado is our top priority.    Monday’s Featured Projects: 580 Dubuque - South San Francisco, CA  Confidential Project - Santa Clara, CA  Scripps Tower II - La Jolla, CA   #fallprotection #safety #always #safety247 #nonnegotiable #zerotolerance #gohomesafe #weloveourpeople #norcal #socal #bayarea #constructionsafetyweek #california #arizona #nevada #colorado #fullservicecontractor 

Murray Company was a proud supporter and participant in the State Apprenticeship Contest hosted by the A&J Training Trust a couple weeks ago. The competition welcomed union pipefitters, plumbers, HVAC contestants, welders, sprinkler fitters, and landscape contestants; all the top finishers of the Regional Competition that took place in February – the best of the best! We’re proud of the skills demonstrated by Murray Company’s craftsmen in the hosted activities. For instance, the plumbers showed their ability to sweat copper pipe and lay out subterranean sewer piping while pipefitters demonstrated their ability to join pipe materials by brazing and welding.    Zach Spano - 3rd Period Apprentice – UA Local 364 (Plumber) Daniel Verdesto - 5th Period Apprentice – UA Local 467 | NorCal (Plumber) Rolando Martinez - 5th Period Apprentice – UA Local 250 (Pipefitter) Congratulations to you all! We wish you continued success in your rewarding careers!   #unionstrong #union364 #union467 #union250 #districtcouncil16 #craftworkers #plumbers #pipefitters #welders #hvac #sheetmetal #contenst #apprenticeship
