Construction Safety Week

Construction Safety Week - Building a Safer Tomorrow

NW Safety Newsletter | May 6, 2025

Every beam we lift, every trench we dig, every structure we raise—it's all possible because of the hardworking people who show up, gear up, and look out for one another. Construction Safety Week 2025 isn’t just an annual observance—it’s a movement in motion. It’s our opportunity to actively recommit to what matters most: protecting every person on every job site, every single day.

Throughout this week, we will focus on five core pillars of safety that shape our culture, guide our decisions, and strengthen our teams. If you haven't joined the movement, now is the time!

Day 1: Why Safety Matters

We kick off the week by asking our team, “What does safety mean to you?” The responses we’ve gathered—family, trust, responsibility, legacy—serve as reminders that safety isn’t just a checklist. It’s a shared value, woven into how we work and who we are.

Days 2–4: Tools, Authority & Mental Health

Midweek, we will turn our attention to the everyday practices that put safety into action. We’re emphasizing proper use of PPE, promoting the courage to use Stop Work Authority, and addressing Mental Health as a vital part of job site well-being. These are the tools we count on to keep ourselves and each other whole.

Day 5: A Culture of Commitment

To close the week, we plan to continue spotlighting our team—because safety only works when it’s shared. From morning huddles to final walk-throughs, we’re stronger when we commit together. So, we plan on highlighting these topics:

∙ Encouraging daily safety ownership from every team member.

∙ How leadership and frontline voices work in sync.

∙ Reaffirming that safety is a long-term promise, not a one-week campaign.

Safety Is Everyone’s Job—And Everyone’s Right

Construction Safety Week may last five days, but its message lasts all year. Our crews build more than infrastructure—they build a culture where safety is the standard, not the exception. When we value people first, everything else follows. Let’s keep that momentum going—because the best foundation we can build is a safe one.
