Safety Stand-Down tomorrow, Nov. 25 We're inviting all AGCW members to join in our statewide Safety Stand-Downtomorrow -- Wednesday, November 25. As we enter into a holiday weekend, knowing that our workforce may be experiencing a bit of "COVID fatigue" with regard to the precautions and protocols we have put in place, it is more important than ever to reinforce COVID safety practices. We feel that it's important to speak with your teams before the holiday break about the need for vigilance and making safe, healthful choices at work and away from work. If you missed it, see today's AGC Safety Bulletin here.
