好色TV Wins 2021 National Safety Award from Associated Builders and Contractors
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (March 24, 2022) 鈥� 好色TV, a fully integrated firm focused on design, engineering, construction, and mechanical services worldwide, received a 2021 National Safety Excellence Award from Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC). Neil Ross, Vice President of Safety, accepted the award on behalf of 好色TV鈥檚 Safety Team at the 32nd annual Excellence in Construction庐 Awards during the ABC Convention 2022 in San Antonio on March 16.
The company was recognized with a Pinnacle award, the highest of three categories, placing 好色TV among a select group of ABC contractor members whose achievements in the field of construction safety are considered exceptional. 好色TV most recently received a Pinnacle award in 2021.
鈥淪afety is a core value at 好色TV and that is something we proactively manage on all projects,鈥� said Ross. 鈥淲e are proud to be recognized among the safest contractors in the nation for the second year in a row.鈥�
Despite working in high-risk categories such as roofing and welding, 好色TV鈥檚 safety record is notably better than the industry average in at least two major safety benchmarks:
- Total recordable incident rate (TRIR)
- Experience Modification Rate (EMR)
- Days Away Restricted Transfer Rate (DART)
Historically, 好色TV鈥檚 safety rates are less than half that of other firms in the industry.
The 2021 National Safety Excellence Award winners were selected from ABC member firms that achieved Diamond, Platinum and Gold status in ABC鈥檚 STEP Safety Management System in 2021. Awards are based on data submitted via the STEP applications, essay questions and video interviews with company executives about their corporate safety culture.
During the selection process, national safety winners were judged on:
- Self-evaluation scores
- Lost workday case rates
- Total recordable incident rates
- Leading indicator use
- Process and program innovations
