" The effort and commitment the PRG Group has demonstrated is courageous and exciting… Safety needs to be a priority and a commitment in the construction industry, and it is very difficult to change the culture within an organization/industry, unless having 100% dedication, effort, and continuously improving safety awareness to all parties involved on a project. Based on several data factors, programs, leading by example, and leadership support, PRG Group has demonstrated that Safety is a priority within their organization and will continue to improve and bring a strong Safety Culture to their projects.

" Cornerstone Management Services (CMS) has been a subcontractor operating through PRG for over 12-years. Though I am aware of numerous safety related improvements PRG has made for their internal team, I greatly appreciate the enormous outreach and support PRG has offered CMS and further detail how PRG, and more specifically, Chris Anderson, PRG Safety Director, goes above and beyond for their network of subcontractors. PRG has not only committed themselves to safety excellence within the workplace, but has helped their network, community, and industry with thorough safety related outreach and education thus creating a culture of safety which will echo throughout the Gallatin and Madison County for years to come. "
