SAFETY CULTURE

The Hawks Culture of Safety

“What makes a car safe?  The car or the driver?”



For over 80 consecutive years, Hawks has maintained a proven culture of safety. To this very day, we screen for the safest methods and products for our personal safety. Protecting our personal safety helps ensure we protect you, and further helps ensure the safety of others, including children and pets in the home.



At Hawks, we know Safety is a form of intelligence. Safety requires a certain approach to knowledge; it requires an informed discipline of action and care. It takes a culture of honesty to keep it real - day in, day out.



Don’t get fooled.



Industry marketing terms like “natural” or “organic” can be highly misleading and mean nothing toxicologically. People may be surprised to learn that living plants produce many novel and poisonous chemicals to protect themselves. These became the first poisons: Strychnine is natural, as are hemlock and belladonna, some of the most notorious poisons in all of human history: organic and natural, and deadly.



Similar misapprehensions arise from misuse of the word "Green" as in Green Buildings or Green indoor environments - formal terms of art rightly used in the fields of building maintenance and environmental air quality of human-built structures. It means these facilities have reduced VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the materials and chemicals used in the making, furnishing and maintenance of the building.



At Hawks, we do not use VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in our routine pest maintenance services. We were Green before it became popular. From our humble beginnings over 80 years ago, we continue to prefer the safest option that works quickly. We don't use the word "Green" because it's been used too often to mislead. We prefer to keep the focus on Safety, the focus that matters most for everyone involved.



It's a simple fact. Safety requires a culture of honesty to keep it real.



Hawks is safety-driven. Our culture is different.
