About Edwards Safety Group

Edwards Safety Group has established itself as a trusted safety consulting firm serving businesses throughout the Omaha area and across Nebraska. Our expertise spans multiple industries, from manufacturing and construction to healthcare and office environments. We believe that effective workplace safety isn't just about compliance - it's about creating cultures where safety becomes a natural part of daily operations. Our consultants bring real-world experience from various industrial backgrounds, not just theoretical knowledge. This practical approach helps us identify hazards that others might miss and develop solutions that actually work in busy, productive environments. We've helped hundreds of Nebraska businesses reduce workplace injuries, improve OSHA compliance, and build sustainable safety programs that protect both workers and bottom lines.

How They Can Help

Edwards Safety Group offers comprehensive workplace safety solutions designed to meet your specific operational needs. Our OSHA compliance services include detailed regulatory audits, citation assistance, and ongoing compliance monitoring. We conduct thorough hazard assessments that examine everything from ergonomic risks to chemical exposures, providing prioritized recommendations for improvement. Our training programs cover general safety awareness, job-specific hazard recognition, and specialized topics like confined space entry and fall protection. We also develop complete safety management systems, including written programs, policies, and procedures tailored to your industry. Fire safety services encompass evacuation planning, equipment inspections, and staff training. When workplace incidents occur, we provide investigation support and help develop corrective action plans. Our industrial hygiene services include air quality monitoring, noise assessments, and exposure evaluations. We also facilitate safety committee development and provide ongoing program management for clients who prefer outsourced safety oversight.

What to Expect

Our consultation process begins with a detailed discussion of your safety goals, current challenges, and regulatory requirements. We then conduct a comprehensive site evaluation, documenting conditions and interviewing key personnel to understand your operational realities. You'll receive a detailed assessment report within five business days, including photographs, regulatory references, and cost-benefit analyses for recommended improvements. Implementation planning is collaborative, with realistic timelines that consider your budget and operational constraints. We provide hands-on support during implementation, including training delivery, policy development, and system setup. Follow-up visits ensure that new procedures are working effectively and help address any unexpected challenges that arise during the transition period.

Service Area

Edwards Safety Group serves the greater Omaha metropolitan area as our primary market, including Bellevue, Papillion, Gretna, and surrounding communities. We also provide services throughout eastern Nebraska, including Lincoln, Fremont, and Columbus. For larger projects, we'll travel anywhere in Nebraska or western Iowa. Our understanding of local industry challenges, from agricultural processing to transportation logistics, helps us provide more relevant and practical recommendations than distant consultants.
