“This represents a significant commitment to our culture of supporting employee safety each and every day. The dedication from our entire team lead by our Director of Safety & Training, Kathy Trivino and supported by our front line Supervisors, Regional Managers, Site Managers and Directors has a major impact on the day to day operating of our company.

It demonstrates safety is embedded in our core and our growth is controlled and properly managed by the best team in our industry” said Frank S. Wardzinski, BRAVO!’s Chief Operating Officer.

Always believing in Safety First, in 2007 BRAVO! reinvested in its Safety & Training programs, which included hiring a dedicated Director of Safety & Training, undergoing a third party audit of its policies and procedures and establishing a Safety Committee.
