ICS Celebrates National Construction Safety Week
National Construction Safety Week was packed with excitement and activities from start to finish this past May. Highlights included stretch and flex sessions, our company-wide step challenge, company-wide safety trivia, and distracted driving and CPR refresher videos. Students from Kimball Area Schools and many of our ICS employees’ children enjoyed a fun safety coloring contest. We ended the week with a celebratory appreciation lunch. It was a perfect blend of learning, teamwork, and enjoyment for everyone involved, and we look forward to next year. Learn more about our commitment to safety here.
