The Contractors Association of West Virginia (CAWV) announced its 2024 Safety Excellence Award winners.

The winners were recognized during the March 26, 2025, CAWV state meeting held in conjunction with the annual West Virginia Construction + Design EXPO at the Charleston Coliseum and Convention Center.

The association annually recognizes contractor and associate members who have exhibited a superior effort to improve safety in the construction industry. Members participating in the program are scored on their documented safety policies and procedures, their commitment and approach to safety and health, and their recorded statistical data for the year. Special attention is given to the quality of safety training provided to employees and members who demand active employee involvement in their safety process.

"CAWV commends these outstanding winners for their dedication to workplace safety and their exemplary safety records," said Safety Committee Chair Gary Tuttle of Kelly Paving Inc. "Their commitment to maintaining a strong and effective construction safety program sets a high standard for the industry."
