How to Be an Effective Worksite Manager

construction tools on blueprint

When you are facilitating a worksite, you have so much on your plate, and it can be hard to know how to prioritize. You want to make sure that everything runs smoothly and that your employees are safe and happy at work. If you can find that balance and have both great productivity and great safety, you can help your projects to go smoothly and make sure that your employees are skilled and capable enough to keep your business growing. 

Facilitate Communication 

One of the biggest jobs that any worksite manager has is making sure that needs and tasks are being communicated correctly. You also want to make sure that your employees feel comfortable coming to you with issues or problems they are facing. You need to make sure that communication is easy and clear, and a lot of the time that starts with communicating clearly yourself. If you are passive aggressive, or even just unclear, with your communications, it is harder for the other people on your crew to feel comfortable sharing what they are experiencing. Make communication a priority whether you are talking to employees, peers, or clients. 

Protect Your Workers 

You also want to make sure that all of your employees are safe and protected, no matter what job they are working on. That can take some work, but it will make things run more smoothly and prevent issues with liability or accidents. Using things like barricades, informative signs, and following OSHA procedures will all help you to keep your employees as safe as possible. You also want to make sure you are investing in the best safety equipment. For example, Type III barricades are among the safest for traffic control for your employees. 

Collaborate with Your Team

Managing a worksite can be especially difficult if you feel like you have to handle everything on your own. Rather than simply managing the people in your employ, make sure you are also creating a culture of collaboration. Then you and your team can work together to innovate and make sure that your business is always moving forward. 

Managing is always a challenge, but it is also very rewarding when you are able to do it in an effective way. Make sure there is a focus on building relationships with your team so you will know you all have each other’s backs. That will help your team to grow stronger and more effective over time.
