Safety Committee
The Safety Committee is responsible for the planning and implementing of all safety related activities. They work directly with the Chicago Construction Safety Council (CCSC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), acting as a communication link between both organizations. The committee updates the membership on important safety issues and regulations as they develop. Over the years, they have created a comprehensive Safety & Risk Management Program and Employee Safety Handbook - both available to UCA members!
