SALUS is thrilled to announce the launch of The Frontline Focus, a podcast dedicated to the unsung heroes of the construction industry: the workers on the frontline. Hosted by Gabe Guetta and Rob McKinney, this podcast shines a spotlight on the people who keep job sites running and the innovative ways we can improve safety and well-being in the industry.

Shifting the Focus in Construction to the Workers Who Matter Most

In construction, it’s easy to get caught up in the numbers game—tracking efficiencies, compliance data, and profit margins—and lose sight of the workers who put their safety on the line every day. The Frontline Focus aims to change that by bringing conversations back to the field, emphasizing a people-first approach to safety. By prioritizing the workforce, we can build a stronger safety culture, foster collaboration, and create harmonious job sites.

This podcast will serve as an educational platform that challenges the status quo, exploring topics like the hidden costs of safety, bridging the gap between field and office, and the role of technology in transforming safety practices. Through candid conversations with industry experts and personal stories, Gabe and Rob hope to inspire listeners to view safety as a core value, not just a regulatory requirement.
