3 Million Safe Man-Hours: Zero Lost Time at Discovery Dunes
Desert Landscape, Desert Group’s landscape contracting company, has completed 3,000,000 safe man-hours with zero Lost Time Injuries at the Discovery Dunes Project, earning the client’s Safety Excellence Award.
A safety record our clients can build on
For a developer or main contractor, zero Lost Time Injuries means a project that stays on schedule, a crew that stays consistent, and fewer disruptions on site. That is what our client at Discovery Dunes received across 3,000,000 hours of landscape work. A Lost Time Injury is any workplace injury that keeps a person from returning for their next shift. On this project there were none, and every crew member went home safe.
Built shift by shift
A milestone like this is never achieved by chance. At Discovery Dunes, every task began with planning that looked ahead at the risks and dealt with them before work started on the ground. Our supervisors set the standard through their own actions, so safe practice became the natural way to work rather than a rule to follow.
Just as important was the crew itself. Every team member looked out for the person beside them, every day. That shared care is what turns good procedures into a safety culture that lasts for three million hours.
Recognised with a Safety Excellence Award
Our client recognised this commitment with a Safety Excellence Award, presented at a dedicated ceremony on site at Discovery Dunes. The event brought together project management, engineers, supervisors and the full site crew to mark the achievement together. We are grateful to our client for the recognition and for a partnership built on shared standards.
This one belongs to everyone
This milestone belongs to every person on the project: management and engineers, supervisors, and every member of our crew on the ground. Each safe hour was earned by someone who chose to do the job the right way. It also reflects the values we hold across Desert Group: dependability, reliability and genuine care for the people who make our work possible.
Safety is how we work
Three million safe hours is a proud moment, but it is not a finish line. The same planning, leadership and care that carried Discovery Dunes go into every project we take on, because safety is not a target we chase. It is simply how we work.If you are planning a landscape project and want a partner who delivers safely and on schedule, talk to our team.
