Each year the Metal Building Manufacturers Association (MBMA) honors member companies that demonstrate exceptional performance in maintaining workplace safety. These awards are given to Building Systems members as well as Associate members for their performance during the previous calendar year. Safety awards for the 2024 year were presented during the 2025 MBMA Spring Meeting held May 7 – 9 in Charlotte, North Carolnia  

“The MBMA Safety Award program was initiated in 2011,” says Tony Bouquot, MBMA general manager. “Since then, we have presented more 400 awards to both Building Systems members as well as Associate members. We are proud to honor those members who have exceptional safety records as we strive to make the industry a safe place for everyone.”

In 2024, Building Systems members had 45 plant facilities that participated in MBMA’s OSHA Injury Statistics Program. “Effective safety initiatives have many benefits,” adds Bouquot, “including boosting employee morale, improving operations, and mitigating insurance risks and exposure to OSHA audits. 

MBMA’s awards program consists of three categories. The 2024 Superior Safety Award was presented to five plants that achieved zero recordable cases for the entire calendar year, which is a significant accomplishment. The 12 facilities that received the 2024 Safety Performance Award achieved an incident rate equal to 50% or less than the OSHA industry average. The 2024 Associate Member Superior Safety Award went to 54 facilities that achieved zero recordable cases for the year, also a major achievement.
