Most safety consultants learned the rules from a binder. Brandon Babcock learns them on emergency calls he still runs today — and holds the credentials to back every word of advice.
Brandon Babcock has spent over nine years as a firefighter and paramedic — and he still serves in that role today. He responds to the calls that happen when training fails, when shortcuts become habit, and when “we've always done it that way” finally catches up. He has seen more workplace injuries and fatalities firsthand than most safety professionals will in an entire career.
That experience pushed him to earn the field's most respected credentials — the CSP, CHMM, CSHM, RIMS-CRMP, and dual Certified Safety & Health Official designations — so the advice he gives is backed by both the textbook and the truck. The combination is rare: deep certification and a first responder's understanding of what actually goes wrong.
Today, CDRisk does most of its work performing loss-control and risk audits for national insurance carriers and TPAs, and delivering competent-person training — trench & excavation and confined space — to construction and industrial teams nationwide. The premise is simple: compliance is the floor, not the ceiling. Meeting OSHA minimums keeps you out of trouble. Fixing the real hazards keeps your people alive.
Headquartered in Northern Utah, CDRisk travels nationwide for audits and training. We're also rolling out an ongoing monthly safety program for property management and retail clients who want a safety partner year-round — the same person, the same site, building trust with your crews.
CDRisk is a growing business, built deliberately by someone who still works the calls. That's on purpose: staying active in the field keeps the advice honest and current. As the work grows, so does the team — but the standard won't change. No fine print, no over-promising: if we can help, we'll tell you. If someone else is a better fit, we'll tell you that too.
The certifications behind the advice — earned, current, and verifiable.
