The Midwest Roofing Contractors Association Safety Program Award recognizes MRCA member companies that have demonstrated a commitment to improving jobsite safety through development, implementation, and enforcement of a safety and risk management program.
2021 MRCA Safety Award
The application for the Safety Awards Program and the ELITE Contractor program have been combined. To become an ELITE Contractor, a firm must earn a Bronze or higher award on their safety program review while meeting additional criteria. The criteria includes, being registered or licensed in the jurisdictions in which they perform work, being OSHA compliant, meeting state insurance, bonding and workers compensation requirements, and also completing eight hours of industry-related continuing education.
