Highwire, the Contractor Success platform for capital project construction and operations, is proud to announce 61 Platinum and Gold Safety Award recipients based in the State of Texas. Highwire’s Safety Awards recognize trade contractors with exceptional past safety performance and an ongoing commitment to safety and risk management.
“Texas is undergoing a construction boom. Labor is in short supply, and deadlines are tight. That makes it imperative that contractors remain focused and vigilant about safety,” said Don Fornes, Chairman & CEO of Highwire. “These awards reflect a genuine commitment to protecting workers. These contractors aren’t just meeting standards; they’re building cultures where safety is the top priority and drives operational success.”
Texas has attracted billions of dollars in technology, energy, and manufacturing investments. As semiconductor facilities, data centers, and energy infrastructure projects compete for skilled labor, construction companies must quickly find reliable, safety-focused subcontractors who can deliver quality work under tight timelines.
The Platinum Safety Award is awarded to companies who score between 95 and 100 on Highwire’s Safety Assessment, while the Gold Safety Award is awarded to those who score between 85 and 94. Scores are calculated using key past performance indicators, including Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR), Days Away, Restricted Duty, or Job Transfer (DART) rate, and Experience Modification Rating (EMR), as well as the quality and implementation of safety management systems, program elements, and advanced initiatives.
