OUR WORK

HCG Associates continues to assist our clients on a daily basis, from rapidly growing nationwide customers to local single shop operators. Here are examples of how we have helped.

Representation

HCG was engaged to assist and represent a seafood distributor with the investigation of a workplace fatality. This included the investigation of the incident, representation of the client with public safety and regulatory representatives, and working with the client’s legal counsel to resolve additional EHS concerns. HCG continues to work with the client as their EHS representative.

HCG Associates assisted a client with a successful lawsuit against their insurer. Working with the client’s counsel, HCG assisted with research, depositions, and representation in winning the multi-million dollar judgment.

HCG frequently works with clients in rectifying EPA and OSHA violations and represents them from the corrective action thru penalty phases.

Consulting and Business Development

HCG Associates initially began consulting for a third party logistical provider that was established as a single warehouse in 1941, but today has grown into a privately owned network of more than 2.1Mil sq ft of state-of-the-art warehousing capacity, strategically located across the US. Along the way HCG has been there to assist our client as they experienced tremendous growth over a short period of time. This brought about challenges that required foresight and knowledge of not only the health and safety regulations, but required an understanding of our customers needs and requirements as well.

Groups We’ve Worked With

On-Site EHS Representation

HCG Associates has been assisting a small family-owned Ice manufacturing and distribution facility for several years. This client plays a crucial role in assisting the fishing industry of New Bedford, and as well as assisting a number of businesses in meeting their objectives. HCG Associates has provided training, program development, and compliance advice on all aspects of local, state, and federally mandated regulations. This client is further required to operate under the Process Safety Management and Risk Management Programs due to their utilization and storage of Anhydrous Ammonia. HCG has assisted in developing Health and Safety objectives, and managing and overseeing the Health and Safety Program, while acting as an EHS representative for the client at a fraction of hiring a full time EHS Director.

HCG has been engaged by numerous businesses to assist in the development of Process Safety Management Programs, Risk Management Programs, and the development of EHS Programs specific to the client. This includes the implement of the program, as well as employee training and integration with business partners.
