Forgen’s culture of safety in action
Adopting Incident and Injury-Free™ safety principles helped support a committed, collaborative safety culture.
As Construction Safety Week 2025 approaches, we’re highlighting organizations that go beyond compliance to make safety a true part of how they work. One of those is leading construction and engineering firm Forgen, a valued JMJ client that’s embraced safety through our Incident and Injury-Free™ (IIF™) approach.
For Forgen, safety isn’t just a goal—it’s a way of working that supports its people and drives performance. Their commitment to creating a culture of care and accountability is evident at every level of the organization, from project managers to crew members on site. And the impact is real: stronger teamwork, more open conversations, and a workforce that feels empowered to speak up and look out for one another.
In the short video below, you’ll directly hear from the people behind Forgen’s safety journey. Testimonials from supervisors, managers, and frontline workers bring the culture to life, sharing what it means to feel supported, stay aware, and make safety part of every decision. It’s a powerful example of how an authentic safety commitment can impact both people and projects.
Why Construction Safety Week matters
Construction Safety Week is a chance to pause, reflect, and share what’s working. It’s a reminder that safety isn’t static; it grows when people learn from one another, challenge assumptions, and stay engaged.
Forgen’s story shows what that looks like in practice. By putting safety at the core of their operations and building leadership capability around it, they’re creating safer projects and a stronger business.

Let’s use this opportunity to strengthen our shared commitment to safety. We invite industry leaders, contractors, and workers to join the conversation, share insights, and leverage available resources to help raise the bar for construction safety. For more information, visit Safety Week 2025.
