The honorary annual award is presented to companies that register a high safety score with Highwire, based on current safety management and historic performance.
As Garrett Burke, CEO of Highwire, explained, “Geosyntec Consultants has done a remarkable job of implementing a strong safety management system. In addition to keeping employees safe, safety performance of this caliber should reduce their insurance premiums.”
The Gold Award (and associated score of 85 to 95 percent) is based on objective assessments of our general contracting, hazardous waste collection, environmental assessment work, and contaminated site material removal. According to Highwire (formerly ConstructSecure), our rating reflects our ongoing commitment to safety and signals strong overall financial health, with fewer injuries and defaults and a lower loss rate and experience modifier rate (EMR).
“High scores from Highwire prequalify contractors for large jobs from major companies and are proof that we are putting in the hard work every day to train staff, monitor safety, recognize best practices, and address possible concerns,” said Bob Poll, Geosyntec’s Health and Safety Director. “We are honored by this recognition and will continue to be vigilant about protecting the wellbeing of our employees, our clients, and the public.”
