GIG HARBOR – Active Construction, Inc. is one of 19 Washington businesses recently honored at the Association of Washington Business (AWB) Board of Directors meeting as a recipient of the 2003 Better Workplace Award for going the extra mile in creating and maintaining better workplaces.
AWB President Don Brunell and Board Chair Mike Bernard were on hand to present the awards Wednesday, Dec. 10, at the Seattle Renaissance Madison Hotel.
The 2003 AWB Better Workplace Awards were given to AWB member businesses both small and large. Award categories included workplace safety, job training and advancement, and innovative benefit and compensation programs. The annual awards program recognizes AWB member companies that go the extra mile to create workplaces that are family-friendly, promote safety and enable employees to achieve their best. In recognizing those outstanding companies, the awards also draw attention to examples of workplace policies that may help other companies identify and develop programs aimed at boosting morale, increasing productivity, improving recruiting and retention, and reducing training costs.
An independent panel of judges chose the winners.
Active Construction was chosen as a winner in the workplace safety category with 26-100 employees. The Gig Harbor construction company is committed to eliminating worker injury at every project site and at every work place. The company expects all employees to conduct their work in a safe manner, to stop work immediately to correct any unsafe condition that is encountered, and to take corrective action so that work may proceed in a safe manner. Through workforce training, core skills development and close employee relations, Active Construction’s goal and expectation is that no one will suffer an injury in the execution of their work.
