A safe and healthy workplace is everyone’s right and responsibility. It’s a shared obligation and a reflection of our values. Through training, leadership, and care for one another, we make safety part of everything we do.

Every employee has the authority and responsibility to stop unsafe work. We encourage open dialogue, shared learning, and proactive reporting to foster continuous improvement.
Across all regions, our crews build skills through tailored training programs, local certifications, and regular field support. Ongoing mentorship and detailed task instruction help every team member work safely.
Our teams have instant access to current versions of safe work instructions, inspection checklists, and safety data sheets — helping crews make informed, safe decisions wherever they are.
Safety requirements can vary by region, client, and site conditions, and we’re ready for all of them. Our teams adapt to local regulations and operational realities while maintaining one consistent goal: to elevate every project to the highest industry standard.
Before heading to site or working at a branch, every team member completes thorough training to ensure they’re prepared to work safely and effectively. Our dedicated trainers provide hands-on instruction tailored to each region, building skilled teams that reduce client risk and strengthen our global safety performance.
Hy-Tech Drilling operates under a robust health and safety management system designed to identify, control, and eliminate risks across all regions where we work. Our approach aligns with international best practices and is supported by recognized certifications such as ISO 45001:2018 in Canada, along with regional safety accreditations. We are currently working on standardizing these practices globally.
Every task at Hy-Tech follows detailed, standardized procedures outlined in our Drill Reference Manual. Our Health & Safety and Sustainability teams provide thorough orientations before each assignment, ensuring every crew member and visitor understands site-specific risks and safe work practices. New Driller’s Helpers also receive additional task-focused training directly from their Driller.
Our Tech 5000 rigs are built with safety at every level — from automated shutdowns and guarding systems to ergonomic rod handling and custom features that adapt to site-specific requirements. Because we design and manufacture our own drills, we can continuously evolve them internally to meet new operational demands. Every detail is engineered to protect our crews and keep operations running safely and efficiently.
Safety doesn’t stop at compliance. Employees are encouraged to share concerns and ideas that drive ongoing improvements to our processes and equipment. Regular site visits, and tools like our Hy-Tech app which gives mobile access to safety resources help us maintain consistent standards and set the benchmark for safety excellence in drilling.
Safety starts long before drilling begins. Every project includes detailed planning, risk assessments, and on-site orientations. Training is a critical element of our safe operations. Regular inspections and management visits help maintain consistency and accountability across all locations.
Every employee completes comprehensive safety training before heading to site. While specific programs vary by region, all include essential instruction on safe work practices, equipment use, and job-specific procedures. In Canada, team members earn MiHR or OCC certifications. In the United States, team members complete their MSHA certification. Globally, all our employees receive ongoing mentorship from experienced drillers and internal trainers.
We provide all the training you need to start safely. Our Driller’s Helper Training Program combines classroom instruction with hands-on experience to build confidence, competence, and a strong foundation for career growth.
Absolutely. Everyone at Hy-Tech has the authority and responsibility to stop work if something doesn’t feel safe. We encourage open communication and continuous feedback, and any concern must be addressed and resolved before work resumes.
We continually review our systems to identify and eliminate risks. Regular field visits, audits, and feedback loops help us stay proactive.
Our mobile app connects crews to everything they need — safe work instructions, inspection checklists, and safety data sheets — making it easier to work safely and efficiently, wherever the job takes them.
