ABC always works to improve our world-class STEP Safety Management System to help our members deliver their work safely. We’ve made a major effort around Total Human Health, which addresses the four dimensions of a human: physical, social, mental and spiritual.
With this in mind, in September, the construction industry is participating in National Suicide Prevention Month. You’ll find an excellent feature article that aims to prepare all of us for a frank conversation about suicide awareness and prevention.
We also continue to share best practices on the physical aspects of safety. This month’s Safety column showcases a unique fall-protection system that a company created for employees extracting and replacing the roof of a reservoir.
That spirit of innovation is one of the reasons why, despite the challenges our industry faces today, our members continue to successfully deliver on very complex projects—none more complicated than megaprojects. Our cover story profiles three mega projects in different market segments from around the country.
Of course, it takes top talent to build these and other projects successfully. In a feature, we introduce you to Brian Oliver, senior project manager with DPR Construction, and tell his unique story.
Finally, this issue has much to share around construction technology solutions and services. We present Top Tech, a special section that includes The Top Construction Technology Firms™ along with corporate profiles and executive insights from some of the major places in contech.
This issue is full of content that will help you “wow” your employees and your clients. Enjoy!
