Smart clients — and smart employees — love a company with a great safety record: jobs go faster and more smoothly, and nobody gets hurt. If that's your company, consider entering NAHB's SAFE awards competition.

Online applications for NAHB's Safety Award For Excellence (SAFE) are now available at www.nahb.org/safe. The SAFE Awards recognize home builders who have developed and implemented outstanding worksite safety programs. There are also categories for remodelers, commercial builders and trade contractors, as well as individual awards for Safety Professional of the Year and Federal and State OSHA Official of the Year, so feel free to spread the word.

ALL entries must be submitted ONLINE by November 9, 2009.

We’ll celebrate the award winners’ success at the NAHB Safety Award For Excellence (SAFE) Banquet on January 20, 2010 (this is a tentative date and is subject to change) in Las Vegas, NV as a part of the 2010 International Builders’ Show.
