Greetings!
The National AGC Safety Awards (NASA) program is now accepting submissions for consideration. NASA has been an ongoing effort since 1991 to offer AGC members an opportunity to evaluate their safety record. NASA compares an AGC member's safety record with other AGC members according to the member size and construction type. Additionally, NASA provides a great opportunity for contractor members who have excellent safety records to compete for nationally recognized awards. Submissions are due by January 23, 2012. Click here for details.
Sincerely,
Tamara Hancock
Director of Communications |
