With a purpose to grow people, serve customers and build their community, and a mission to be the company people trust to power projects safely and successfully every time, Stansell Electric’s Injury Free initiative provided a drive to ensure workplace safety.

In March of 2017, Stansell Electric launched Injury Free and empowered their employees to implement changes that ensure at the end of each day they all go home safely to their families and friends. Injury Free is a culture change platform that propelled their company to achieve in 16 months the lowest incident rates over the past decade.

Recently at the Construction Safety Excellence Awards in Las Vegas, Stansell Electric was recognized for having one of the nation’s top construction safety and health programs in 2022 by the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC). Stansell Electric was judged and selected as the second-place winner in the Specialty Contractors division, 350,000 – 1 million, work hours. “We invest so much time and energy in organizing what is a very rigorous awards program because this is a vehicle for elevating the safety and health of the industry” said Dan Fordice, the association’s president and vice-president of Fordice Construction Co. in Vicksburg, Mississippi. “By finding and highlighting some of the very best industry safety and health programs, we are seeking to elevate safety and health within the entire industry.”

In addition, at the annual Tennessee Road Builders Association meeting in March 2023, Stansell Electric received two big awards, the Platinum Safety and Subcontractor of the Year. The Platinum Safety award recognizes contractors with zero injury related accidents during the year; this is the second year in a row that they have received this award. For the third time in the company’s history, they were named Subcontractor of the Year which is voted on by Prime Contractors, Associates, and Suppliers based upon the following criteria;

• Accurate and responsible quotations
• Quality workmanship
• Safe worksite and work habits
• Sufficient personnel and equipment to timely construct the project
• Prompt payment for supplies and materials
• Prompt in providing documents and certifications
• Ability to meet the project schedule

Stansell was honored to have received such high recognition and they look forward to continuing this service.
