As construction site safety issues continue to grab national attention, the Nevada Chapter of the Associated General Contractors will recognize its most conscientious companies of the past year while presenting the story of how one safety manager dealt with a workplace accident in his family.
The Nevada Chapter will hold its 13th Annual Golden Hard Hat Awards Luncheon at 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, June 23 in the Paradise Ballroom at the Atlantis Hotel Casino.
