The state of Pennsylvania has given the Governor’s Award for Safety Excellence to two companies: Chapman Corp. and the Gettysburg Foundation. The award is given to companies with exceptional workplace safety programs and was created to encourage companies to share successful workplace safety practices with other companies and develop even better safety standards. Chapman Corp. is an electrical, mechanical, and civil construction services company that also provides pipe and metal fabrication services, and employs over six hundred workers in the state. Some of the safety practices that Chapman Corp. uses include a virtual 3D lift plan that simulates crane lifts before being implemented, a program to fight compliance that typically occurs near the end of projects, and comprehensive practices that are implemented at all worksites.
