Last week, Gardner-Watson is proud to participate in the 2026 Fall Prevention Stand-Down Week.

As a company that works at heights every day, fall prevention remains our highest priority. Throughout the week, our teams across the country conducted daily stand-downs focused on critical topics including:

• Controlled Decking Zones (CDZ)

• Controlled Access Zones (CAZ)

• Fall protection anchor points

• Proper tie-off procedures

• Leading edge awareness

• Safe decking installation practices

• Hazard recognition and communication

This year, we are placing additional emphasis on educating our crews on the differences between a CDZ and a CAZ, helping ensure workers fully understand when and where each applies.

These discussions are more than meetings, they are opportunities to reinforce safe work habits, engage with our crews, and strengthen our safety culture on every project.

Thank you to our field employees, foremen and safety team for their continued commitment to working safely and looking out for one another.

Safe. Precise. On Time.

March 1–7 is Women in Construction Week, an initiative led by the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC), and we are proud to stand alongside them in recognizing the women shaping the steel industry through our SteelStrong Women in Construction initiative.

This year, dozens of nominations were submitted from across the country, highlighting women in the trades, management, ownership, and executive leadership.

From those nominations, we are spotlighting seven women as our 2026 SteelStrong Women in Construction Legacy Builders. Over the coming days, we will share their stories and the impact they have made within their companies, their communities, and the profession as a whole.

These seven women represent just a fraction of the talent and leadership present throughout the steel industry. Throughout the week, we will also recognize all nominees across each category, celebrating the broader community of women making an impact every day.

We invite you to watch, share, and join us in recognizing the women building the future of steel!

Very excited that we had a vendor put our name on the DeWalt car for one race. What an honor and unbelievable experience.
