The Construction Industry Safety Excellence (CISE) Awards program will recognize commendable safety management and safety improvements of owner member companies of the Construction Users Roundtable (CURT). The organization will recognize those firms or organizations that have most effectively implemented the recommendations of The Business Roundtable CICE Report A-3, "Improving Construction Safety Performance." As a member of AGC of America, your company may be nominated by AGC to be considered for one of the CISE awards.

CURT was formed in the summer of 2000 by construction and engineering executives representing major corporations that are among the largest consumers in the construction industry. The formation of the association was prompted by a desire to continue the thirty-year effort of the Construction Committee of the Business Roundtable. The objective in the new organization is to have broader owner representation and increased owner input on industry issues.

CURT and Safety:

• Recognize and promote continuous improvements in construction industry safety performance.
• Provide recognition for outstanding owner and contractor safety performance.
• Communicate with regulatory agencies regarding Owner's position on safety issues and practices.
• Recommend solutions in accordance with CURT member policies.
• Develop a Blueprint of problem areas to be addressed by the committee.
• Develop educational materials on safety improvement for use by owner and contractor organizations.
