TEMPE, Ariz. (Oct. 4, 2016) – The American Society of Concrete Contractors (ASCC) has honored Sundt Construction, Inc. (www.sundt.com) with the 2016 W. Burr Bennett Award for Safety Excellence.
The award, which recognizes one general contractor and one specialty contractor for placing the highest priority on safety, was presented on September 15 at ASCC’s 2016 annual conference in Minneapolis.
“This is not only a reflection of Sundt’s positive safety culture at work but its commitment to protecting each and every Sundt employee,” said Sundt Concrete Division Manager Stew Grauer. “Sundt put in more than 3.5 million hours in 2015 and had just a handful of recordable incidents.”
Earlier this year, Sundt also won the Associated General Contractors of America Grand Award, which is the organization’s highest honor for Safety Excellence and is given annually to the country’s safest construction company. It is the only general contractor to have won the award twice.
