About the As Per Logo:

Adapted from the traditional Irish design, The As Per Safety & Rescue Logo incorporates three key elements. The first, the Cross, is symbolic of safety, first aid and rescue, as in the Red Cross and medical services throughout the world. The Celtic knot work found within the cross is symbolic of the ropes and knots required in rescue and fall protection. Finally, the circle behind the cross is symbolic of continuing education and lifetime learning.

 

Quinn Gillard

CSO, CHSC, CSC

Quinn Gillard began his construction career  as a scaffolder in Edmonton in 1991. He attained his scaffold accreditation while working on new plant construction and plant maintenance projects in Western Canada. His experience with various resource based industries such as oil & gas, mining, forestry & chemical companies within the industrial sector allowed Quinn to focus on his present career choice.

Quinn became involved with Construction Health and Safety in 2001 and achieved his Construction Safety Officer (CSO) status with the Alberta Construction Safety Association (ACSA) in 2002. Quinn has since attended the University of Alberta OH&S Certificate program, graduating in 2005 and has gone on to achieve Certified Health and Safety Consultant (CHSC) status with the Canadian Society of Engineers (CSSE) and the Gold Seal Certification of Construction Safety Coordinator (CSC) with the Canadian Construction Association (CA). Quinn has also been involved in the development of the new scaffolding standard with the Canadian Standards Association (CAN/CSA Z797 "Code of Practice for Access Scaffolds") since 2002 with the standard released in April of 2009. 

Quinn enjoys serving his country with the Canadian Armed Forces Artillery Reserve and has spent his spare time away from scaffolding and his current construction career on active overseas peacekeeping missions with the United Nations and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in such countries as Cyprus and areas within the former Yugoslavia (Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina). Aside from a short stint away from the active reserve while he and his wife Tara started their family, Quinn remains an active member today in the 61st Battery, 20th Field Regiment of the Royal Canadian Artillery.
