“This award will be proudly displayed in our chapter office.”

AGC’s strategic plan states: “Leadership….to advance AGC’s role in the Minnesota construction industry’s safety and loss prevention initiatives through education and related programs that invest in the safety and well-being of our workforce” and to “continue efforts to be branded as the association whose members possess an exemplary commitment to employee safety and health.”
