Accepting Applications for the MRCA Safety Awards and ELITE Contractor Program

The new and improved online application process is now available!

Many MRCA Members have taken their Safety Programs to the next level and used their ELITE Status to set them apart from their competition.

Here is what one MRCA Member had to say about his experience with the program:

“The feedback that we received was invaluable to the advancement of our Safety and Risk Management Program. Through the application process alone, we gained improved awareness of several emerging risk management issues that we were not addressing in our own program.”  - David Maxwell, Construction Manager, Maxwell Roofing & Sheet Metal, Inc.- Nashville, TN
