Along with recognizing individuals for their safety leadership, AGC Georgia also offers a Corporate Safety Program. Our program is in conjunction with AGC of America’s NASA program which offers members of all AGC chapters an opportunity to evaluate their safety record with other firms performing similar work from across the country.
