North Branch president, Joseph Campbell presents Community Bridges president and CEO, Ann Potoczak, with a donation from the firm’s 2022 Safety Fine Program.

Concord, NH North Branch Construction has donated the proceeds from the firm’s annual safety fine program to two deserving non-profit organizations – Community Bridges in Concord, and Lakes Region Community Developers in Laconia, N.H. In 2022, the safety fine program proceeds totaled nearly $4,000, resulting in a $2,000 donation to each organization. 

North Branch developed its safety fine program 16 years ago, with the intent to increase hazard recognition, reduce risk of injury, and create an overall safer working environment for all personnel working on North Branch jobsites. At a minimum, the program requires subcontractors, as well as North Branch’s own employees, to abide by the OSHA Construction Industry Regulations at all times. When safety violations are observed, it is North Branch’s objective to correct them immediately. Consequently, the firm warrants safety fines for any repeat violations.

North Branch completed a renovation and office fit-up project for Community Bridges in 2022. The renovations and fit-up of the 22,000 s/f building located at 162 Pembroke Rd.
