National 'STAND DOWN' for Construction Safety
THANK YOU to All Of Our Members Who Participated!
Many of our members and agency partners joined construction teams across the nation on April 16, 2020 for the National Association of Homebuilder's Stand Down for Construction Safety. Throughout our community, builders and trade partners paused for 10 mins or more to talk about jobsite safety and protocols for working under the pressures of COVID-19. Our members rose to the occasion donning face masks and observing "Social Distancing" to discuss ways to protect themselves and our jobsites. |
