The Safety Climate Assessment Tool for Small Contractors (S-CAT^sc) is based on the structure and content of the original S-CAT but was re-designed as more of a needs assessment for use by smaller-sized construction companies. Companies answer questions about specific activities they are carrying-out across the same eight safety climate leading indicators measured in the original S-CAT:

1. Demonstrates Management Commitment to Safety
2. Promotes and Incorporates Safety as a Value
3. Ensures Accountability at All Levels
4. Supports Effective Supervisory Leadership
5. Empowers and Involves Employees
6. Communicates Effectively
7. Provides Training at All Levels
8. Encourages Owner/Client Involvement

You can access and administer the S-CAT^sc at no charge by going to our Safety Climate-Safety Management Information System (SC-SMIS) website and creating an account.  If you enter as a guest, you can download the S-CAT^sc but will need to create a free account to administer it at your company.
