The Associated General Contractors of Vermont (AGC/VT) has been selected as a Verdantix Environment, Health, Safety & Quality 2024 Innovation Award Finalist. Other finalists include Amazon, Google, BESIX and Cal-Poly.
“We work tirelessly on behalf of our members as well as the construction industry as a whole, and we intend to keep pushing the envelope in new and creative ways to promote one of the greatest industries in our country.”
The Verdantix Innovation Award is presented annually to organizations that demonstrate outstanding leadership and commitment to advancing Health, Safety & Quality within the international community. AGC/VT has been recognized for their leading efforts in advancing safety culture, reducing incident rates, improving processes, and delivering significant sustainability outcomes. AGC/VT reflects a diverse array of industries and company sizes, showcasing the breadth and depth of innovation taking place in the field of EHS.
“We are incredibly honored to be a finalist for the Verdantix Innovation award,” said Jason Sicard, President of AGC/VT. “This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team. We remain committed to supporting our members and advancing the construction industry through innovative strategies, technologies and practices.”
While AGC/VT’s efforts have led to notable achievements, including being recognized nationally as one of the country's top construction/business membership associations eight times over the last four years, landing a spot in Verdantix’s finalists for the 2024 Innovation Award for Environment, Health, Safety & Quality is a considerable honor. “To be included among the ranks of such well-known and successful international corporations is truly humbling,” said Richard Wobby, Executive Vice President of AGC/VT. “We work tirelessly on behalf of our members as well as the construction industry as a whole, and we intend to keep pushing the envelope in new and creative ways to promote one of the greatest industries in our country.”
The organization’s proactive approach to health and safety has resulted in further solidifying its role as a leading voice in the business/construction industry both in Vermont and nationally.
