AGCC Renews Partnership With OSHA - Safety incidents drop 46 percent among participating AGC Members!

As Randy DeMario, board president of the Associated General Contractors of Colorado signed the historic agreement renewing AGC’s partnership with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, he recalled the profound impact the partnership has had on reducing worksite injuries and saving lives.
 
“Since the program started in 2004, the number of injury incidents has dropped 46 percent, from 5.7 incidents per 100 employees in 2004 to 3.1 in 2009,” said DeMario, president of Heath Construction in Fort Collins. “We’ve demonstrated that the program with OSHA works.”
 
Through the partnership, OSHA will continue to offer incentives for participating contractors who follow OSHA safety and health requirements and procedures.
 
“Typically a contractor’s relationship with OSHA can be adversarial,” said Ed Davis, AGC-Colorado safety director. “This program shows that the relationship can be a partnership and create even safer jobsites.”

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) set new rules for certain contractors who renovate or repair housing, child-care facilities, or schools built before 1978.  Workers must follow lead-safe work practice standards to reduce potential exposure to dangerous levels of lead during renovation and repair activities.   The rule takes full effect on April 22, 2010.  For more information click here.
