Everyone Goes Home Safe
KBE is nationally recognized for a safety-first culture that’s rooted in preparation, accountability, and respect for every person on our job sites. From OSHA partnerships to industry-leading awards, our track record proves it. Safety isn’t just a priority, it’s a promise.
-
KBE has earned nine OSHA Safety Training Partnerships — a distinction granted only to firms with exceptional safety records. These partnerships, in collaboration with OSHA and CONN-OSHA, promote top-down commitment to job site safety, improving outcomes for workers and reinforcing a shared responsibility culture.
-
We’ve received more than 30 industry safety awards, including multiple Diamond-level ABC STEP Awards — the highest level of recognition — as well as Platinum, Gold, and Silver honors over the past 25+ years. These awards reflect the strength of our safety program and the consistent performance of our field teams.
-
KBE has been twice recognized with ABC’s National Safety Excellence Award, known as the “Best of the Best” honor. This award goes to companies that demonstrate world-class training, measurable results, and a culture of safety that goes far beyond compliance.
-
More than 100 members of KBE’s construction staff hold OSHA 30-hour certifications — a reflection of the depth of our training commitment. Our Corporate Safety Team includes OSHA-Certified Trainers who also review subcontractor safety plans before work begins, ensuring our entire site ecosystem is aligned and prepared.
