CONSTRUCTION SAFETY WEEK - SEPTEMBER 14-18, 2020
Another successful Safety Week is in the books. Safety is a way of living at Aldridge, but it is always a great week to connect and thank our field crews, take additional time to review important topics, and to get valuable feedback from our employees on how we can continue to improve our Safety Program and overall support.
Check out what happened at this year’s Safety Week:

Aldridge recognizes many of the issues our employees are facing. Now, more than ever, mental health awareness is paramount. Ken Aldridge speaks about how it is affecting our industry.
This year, we are dedicating a day during Safety Week to 'Line of Fire'. We will define line of fire, give you tools to identify potential hazards, and build a strong line of defense so you can stay out of harm's way. As always, our focus is at home or at work, day or night, nobody gets hurt.
