OUR MISSION

Wicked OSHA was created to help small to mid-size contractors dramatically and easily improve workplace safety by making OSHA standard compliance simpler.

While we’ve worked to make our product fun and engaging, we know well that occupational safety is a serious topic.

OSHA laws exist because, on average, 15 workers die every day in occupational accidents. This sobering reality follows contractors to every job, no matter how many other times things have gone okay.

‍However, improving work site safety shouldn’t be a chore to dread. We’ve set out to make it so simple, convenient, and cost-effective, there will be no reason not to do it.

“Wicked”

adjective

  1. evil or morally wrong.

“Wicked” by definition, means evil or morally wrong. At WickedOSHA, we believe it is morally wrong to not be 100% OSHA compliant 100% of the time. We also understand that this is a daunting, timely and sometimes a confusing task to achieve. That’s exactly what WickedOSHA founder, Brent Colvin, felt. Brent had built a successful roofing company that’s been in operation for more than 20 years when he found himself facing a hefty OSHA violation. Like many contractors, Brent was simply implementing safety practices the way he had learned them. He never had a workplace injury and therefore, thought he was doing things the right way. After learning of his violation, he knew there had to be an easier, more efficient way for contracting businesses to become wicked safe and 100% OSHA compliant.

In the face of a substantial OSHA fine, he knew he needed help.

He reached out to the local OSHA office, and the officials spent hours educating him. The safety information was priceless and would undoubtedly keep his employees safer, but the reality was he was overwhelmed managing the amount of OSHA information and paperwork, while at the same time running his business.

‍That was when the Wicked seed of a new and better way was planted. The vision of helping contractors make their workplaces safer with a digital OSHA compliance tool that was simple, convenient and paperless was brought to life with help from OSHA safety expert Marc McClure.

Brent Colvin

Brent Colvin conceived WickedOSHA during his work as a roofing contractor. For more than 14 years, Brent has been the owner of Ready Roofer, a Kansas-based roofing company. Brent started roofing in college and never looked back; his passion for the craft and entrepreneurship still burns bright today. He understands the challenges contractors face to maintaining safe worksites because he’s lived it every day of his career.

What seemed like one of the worst days of his career – being hit with an expensive OSHA fine – was, in hindsight, an opportunity in disguise. It provided a learning experience that helped him to envision a much simpler and less stressful way to help small and medium-sized contractors make their workplace much safer and OSHA compliant – wicked compliant, if you will.

He designed WickedOSHA with the end-user in mind, treating every feature of the app with the same meticulous detail as his roofs, working to ensure every user would be highly satisfied with the experience.
