Job site safety is a way of life at Konover – and a point of pride.  We are renowned for the caliber of our safety programs and our reputation for maintaining safe job sites. This commitment is reflected in our insurance modification rates, which are consistently well below the industry average of 1.0.

Our safety-training programs have won numerous Platinum Safety Training & Evaluation Process Awards from the National Association of Builders & Contractors (ABC), which also recognizes us as one of the top three US construction companies for exemplary safety records. We are a designated Accredited Quality Contractor (AQC) and were recently invited to participate in an alliance with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) that is designed to foster safer and healthier workplaces in America.

National insurance underwriter Liberty Mutual recognized our “Commendable Safety Performance” at our St. Mary’s College of Maryland project, and gave us its Silver Award for a lost time rate on all Konover Construction projects that is 60% below the national average.

Our aggressive safety program extends to our subcontractors as well. We require written safety programs from every subcontractor for every project, and actively train and educate our subcontractors in developing their own safety programs and maintaining job site safety.
