commercial developments. Founded in 1950
as Asphalt Services Ltd. by Ted Greenaway
and John Flood in Saskatoon, Sask., the com-pany
grew as Saskatchewan’s towns and cit-ies
did over the years, expanding to Regina
and Lloydminster. Today, with equipment
repair shops and stationary asphalt plants
in those three major centres and a mobile
plant serving rural areas, ASL also supplies
asphalt products and specialty aggregate
to its commercial and industrial custom-ers
throughout Saskatchewan. The compa-ny,
now owned by David Paslawski, Wade
Mitchell and James Fraser, has participated
in some major projects recently, including
building South Circle Drive in Saskatoon (as
a subcontractor to Graham Flatiron JV) and
the initial internal roadworks for the Global
Transportation Hub in Regina.
Culture of safety
Potts became the company’s safety coor-dinator
in October 2015. Now 27, she has
taken the Occupational Health and Safety
Practitioner applied certificate program
offered at Saskatchewan Polytechnic ( for-merly
SIAST, the Saskatchewan Institute
of Applied Science and Technology) and
also received her National Construction
Safety Officer designation from the
Heavy Construction Safety Association of
Saskatchewan (HCSAS).
Every year, she leads both new and re-turning
ASL employees in a general safe-ty
orientation, Workplace Hazardous
Materials Information System (WHMIS)
training and power mobile equipment
training. New employees are also trained
in road builders’ safety training system
(RSTS).
“At the start of the season, I present the
general safety orientation for all three lo-cations,
discussing the statistics from
“There’s always been an excellent
safety culture at ASL Paving. In
2015, one of our employees
received his 50th safety award.”
