This recognition places us among the top-performing contractors nationwide who demonstrate world‑class safety practices and a commitment to continuous improvement.
The ABC STEP program is one of the construction industry’s most respected safety benchmarking tools. After a thorough review of our safety processes, training programs, and performance data, ABC confirmed Pro‑Wide Drywall at the PLATINUM tier—an honor reserved for companies that consistently exceed industry standards.

A proactive approach to hazard prevention
Strong leadership engagement in safety
Ongoing employee training and development
Documented performance that surpasses national averages
A company‑wide commitment to sending every worker home safe
This recognition also qualifies Pro‑Wide Drywall for additional ABC honors, including the Top Performers lists and national awards such as the Excellence in Construction® Awards and the National Health and Safety Excellence Awards.
Why Safety Matters to Us
Our crews work in fast‑paced, high‑risk environments every day. Achieving STEP Platinum is more than an award—it’s validation of the systems we’ve built, the accountability we uphold, and the pride our team takes in doing things the right way. Safety is the foundation that allows us to deliver quality work, meet deadlines, and build long‑term trust with our clients and partners.
Looking Ahead
We’re honored to join the ABC Health and Safety Alliance and will continue using the STEP program’s tools, resources, and performance insights to strengthen our safety program even further. As we grow, our commitment remains the same: protect our people, elevate our standards, and lead by example in the construction industry.
To everyone on the Pro‑Wide Drywall team—thank you. This achievement belongs to all of us.
