Why STEP?
Safety is a core value – With STEP, each member has the opportunity to build upon this organized approach for analyzing and developing safety and loss prevention programs.
The Key Component system forms a 20-point guide to starting, updating or auditing a company-wide safety program Incorporates lagging indicator safety performance data with leading indicator use and self-assessment requirements to give a full, wide ranging report on the entire nature of a company’s Safety Program.
Designed to benefit both large and small contractors alike.
Recognition for ABC members at both National and Chapter level, with various recognition events held throughout the year.
Gateway to Accredited Quality Contractor recognition, STEP Diamond and Platinum recipients are eligible for the ABC National Safety Excellence Award and Construction Users Roundtable (CURT) CISE Award.
STEP data shows participants beat BLS national averages in all lagging indicator performance metrics, leading to participant benefits in the pre-bid/bid process and when negotiating insurance rates.
