Those factors are then combined with a safety audit consisting of 20 key components. The Diamond Award is the highest honor of the program.

“A contractor’s most valuable resource is their workers. There is nothing more important than jobsite safety,” said GCI president Barbara Lagergren. “This year’s award recipients deserve each and every accolade they received by continuing to raise the standards of safety, training, and education throughout the construction industry.”
