Construction owners and contractors continue placing increased emphasis on measurable safety performance as projects grow more complex and workforce risks remain a key operational concern. Clancy & Theys Construction’s latest recognition from Associated Builders and Contractors reflects the ongoing industry focus on structured safety management systems and jobsite risk reduction.
Clancy & Theys Construction achieved Platinum-level recognition through Associated Builders and Contractors’ STEP Health and Safety Management System, a national benchmarking program designed to evaluate contractor safety performance and management practices.
The recognition extends the company’s multi-year participation in the program. Clancy & Theys previously received Diamond-level recognition in 2022 and 2023, followed by Gold status in 2024 and Platinum recognition in both 2025 and 2026.
According to Associated Builders and Contractors’ 2025 Health and Safety Performance Report, contractors participating in advanced STEP safety programs have reported incident rates below broader construction industry averages tracked by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Clancy & Theys Construction organizes its safety strategy around planning, workforce training and active field oversight. The company’s Environmental, Health and Safety program includes project-specific safety planning, trade partner coordination and ongoing monitoring intended to identify and address potential risks before construction activities begin.
The contractor also provides jobsite safety orientation and protocol training for subcontractors and project teams to support compliance across active construction operations.
Contractors throughout the commercial construction sector continue expanding formal safety programs as owners increasingly evaluate safety records and workforce protection measures during procurement and contractor selection processes.
Safety performance remains a major factor for construction owners, developers and public agencies managing large capital programs. Increasing project complexity, labor shortages and evolving regulatory requirements have led many contractors to adopt more comprehensive safety management systems and training programs.
For owners and general contractors, safety benchmarking programs provide measurable indicators that can help assess operational consistency, workforce preparedness and risk management practices across multiple projects and market sectors.
