Construction Safety Week

Build safe construction practices no matter what you build

Construction is a diverse industry, but one thing is the same across all professions: a drive to keep workers safe. Be sure you have solid plans — and follow through — in place to address risks and build a team-based safety culture. UFG Insurance is here to help you get started.


UFG Risk Control offers a wide variety of downloadable resources to enhance safety, resiliency and sustainability within the construction industry.

Construction Safety Week 2025 is a great time to reflect on risk management efforts at your company. Whether thinking about ways to improve a safety plan, pinpointing opportunities to enhance employee training or simply brainstorming how to create a stronger construction team, this annual awareness week is an occasion to act. Remember: Construction safety is something to celebrate all year long.
