Strong safety performance continues to be a key factor in delivering complex infrastructure and heavy civil construction projects. Sukut Construction has been recognized with the 2025 R.E.A.L. Safety Award from United Contractors (UCON), earning distinction in the 1,000,000+ Man-Hours category for its commitment to jobsite safety.
The annual recognition honors contractors that demonstrate measurable safety performance, workforce protection and leadership in establishing effective safety practices across construction operations.
Sukut received the award following an anonymous evaluation process that assessed applicants against established safety criteria. According to UCON, the 2025 awards attracted one of the largest applicant pools in the program's history.
Recognition in the highest man-hour category reflects Sukut's ability to manage safety across major construction projects supported by workforce training, pre-task planning, field observations and ongoing hazard identification.
The company's safety program emphasizes accountability throughout project delivery, with employees participating in daily safety practices intended to reduce jobsite risks.
Established in 2005, the UCON R.E.A.L. Safety Awards recognize contractors and individuals that demonstrate excellence, awareness and leadership in construction safety.
For heavy civil contractors, maintaining consistent safety performance is an important component of project execution, helping reduce operational risks while supporting workforce wellbeing on large-scale construction sites.
Construction owners increasingly consider contractor safety performance during procurement and project selection. Industry recognition for safety management can demonstrate a contractor's ability to execute complex projects while maintaining strong risk management practices, supporting safer jobsites and improved project outcomes.
