Applications Open for 2025 NWIBRT Safety Awards

Posted

For several years in a row, the U.S. Department of Labor has reported that Indiana has consistently improved its workplace safety numbers, including in the construction industry. For their efforts in ensuring job site safety and minimizing accidents, construction companies throughout Northwest Indiana have an opportunity to receive well-deserved recognition.

To honor the region’s top performers, NWIBRT (Northwest Indiana Business RoundTable) will host its annual special awards ceremony this May. Companies that are eager to showcase achievements in safety can visit AWARDS BANQUET -- NWIBRT to fill out an application and submit an entry.

Each year, NWIBRT partners with the Construction Advancement Foundation (CAF) to hold the banquet and honor companies that have demonstrated a commitment to excellence in safety. Over 600 construction professionals attend the annual event, celebrating achievements made in the previous year. The selection committee considers criteria including injury rates, incident statistics and total hours worked.

Beyond company safety awards, the banquet will also feature honors for individual awards, including those for exceptional craft workers, safety leaders, and employees who have shown extraordinary heroism on the job.

Award applications can be submitted at NWIBRT.org, with a submission deadline of February 14, 2025.

The CAF/NWIBRT Awards Banquet will take place on Thursday, May 8, 2025, at Avalon Manor in Merrillville, IN. For ongoing updates and additional details, attendees can visit NWIBRT.org.
