At American Constructors, nothing is a higher priority than the safety of our team. In honor of Construction Safety Week, we hosted a Safety Seminar to educate our field staff to reinforce the importance of safety and recognize those who champion our values on and off the jobsite.
The seminar included remarks from our leadership team and safety quiz battles that put our team’s safety knowledge to the test. We also heard from our keynote speaker, Eric Stephan of Safe Construction Consulting, who discussed Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards and proper safety practices. Afterward, our team enjoyed some food, fun, and live music from local Austin musician Brandon Luedtke.
We believe that everyone has the power to be a leader in safety and empower those around them. We are so proud of our team for making safety their top priority each and every day.
Thank you to everyone who joined us at this year’s seminar! Check out our safety videos below to learn more about why safety matters at American Constructors.
