ASSOCIATED BUILDERS AND CONTRACTORS
Associated Builders & Contractors of Western Washington is a nonprofit
trade association that represents more than 390 companies, open
and union general contractors, subcontractors, professional service
firms and suppliers, all united in their support of open competition
and free enterprise in the construction industry.
Associated Builders & Contractors is a national organization of
over 20,000 members whose dedication is to the construction of
America. They strongly support the building trades industry in
four main areas. These areas are:
- Community–ABC believes in its members supporting the community
effort to make this place a better place to live.
- Training–ABC strongly supports having the best trained construction
works to provide quality installations.
- Safety–Partnering with OSHA, ABC has developed a safety program
that is one of the best in the industry. Members reaching the
top safety level, known as the Platinum Safety Award, are assured
that OSHA will be less likely to audit their jobs because they
have a proven safety record.
- Benefits–The association believes in supporting the worker with
benefits and wages that sustain a good standard of living.
If a member qualifies in each of the above areas, ABC sanctions
their Quality Contractor Award. The standards are high because
ABC believes quality is what the customer wants.
