Superior Wins Safety Awards from National Safety Council and Carolinas AGC
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (June 14, 2024) — Superior Construction has won safety awards from two nationally recognized industry associations, the National Safety Council (NSC) and Carolinas AGC (CAGC).
The NSC recognized Superior with its Occupational Excellence Achievement award, presented to organizations that have injury and illness records better than or equal to 50% of the Bureau of Labor Statistics for their North American Incident Classification System (NAICS) code. The NSC is America’s leading nonprofit safety advocate and works to eliminate the leading causes of preventable death and injury.
In addition, Superior’s Carolinas division, led by Richard Kirkman, has won the CAGC Safety Award for the second year in a row. The construction trade association, comprising contractors and construction-related firms in North Carolina and South Carolina, is a chapter of the AGC of America (AGC) and the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA). Its safety recognition program compares members’ safety records with others in like classifications and similar workforce hours exposure. The organization collects and reviews data from the previous year, including OSHA 300 logs, to determine the winners. This year’s Carolinas AGC Safety Awards will be presented in August during the CAGC Summit and Expo in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
“We have to thank our crews throughout the Carolinas for maintaining excellent safety records,” said Bryan Stone, Superior Construction’s regional health, safety and environment manager. “Without their dedication and commitment to safety, we wouldn’t get this recognition from prestigious organizations like the National Safety Council and Carolinas AGC.”
This latest recognition marks the fourth safety award earned by Superior in 2024 thus far.
