This joint effort encourages companies to pause work sites throughout the U.S. during Construction Safety Week from <span class=\"xn-chron\">May 6-10<\/span> to create the largest industry-wide safety stand-down ever held.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past ten years, the construction industry, which traditionally has higher than average incident rates compared to other occupations, has made considerable strides in prioritizing and committing to safety. The 2024 Construction Safety Week theme, <i>Value Every Voice<\/i>, is designed to connect and strengthen the message throughout the industry. The theme explores four components: driving personal ownership, encouraging and welcoming new ideas, embracing every voice, and strengthening our safety culture. Construction Safety Week provides related content for companies to plan activities, conversations and demonstrations with their teams.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Construction Safety Week kicked off 10 years ago with a mission to make the industry safer for all workers. Over the years, the theme of this week-long initiative has evolved and strengthened the message that every person in the industry plays an essential role in safety,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Dan Johnson<\/span>, Mortenson Chief Executive Officer and 2024 Safety Week Chair. &#8220;We encourage everyone participating in Construction Safety Week to extend their commitment and dedication to safety outside of this one week and implement higher safety standards throughout the year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the 2024 Construction Safety Week kickoff, workers and companies across the industry are encouraged to participate in the <i>My Voice, My Vote Giveaway<\/i> between <span class=\"xn-chron\">April 8 &#8211; May 9<\/span>. This year&#8217;s Giveaway encourages workers and companies across the construction industry to vote for the reason that represents why they are committed to valuing every voice. It also asks participants to share how they demonstrate this commitment in the workplace for a chance to win a <span class=\"xn-money\">$1000<\/span> grand prize.
