It is with great pride I inform you that Mark Skuby was recently recognized by the Subcontractors Association of the Delaware Valley (SADV) as one of the “Best of the Best” for construction safety professionals in the tri-state area.

The SADV is an association of union and open shop subcontractors who are looking to improve their business practices. Safety is a top priority of the Association.
Mark’s recognition as an outstanding Safety Professional by this group illustrates how positively he is viewed by his peers in the Construction industry. He was nominated by Miller Brothers, and the nomination was seconded by Norris Sales. This nomination, from not one but two Safegard clients, speaks volumes about Mark’s safety knowledge, expertise and teaching skills which he routinely and generously shares with all of the clients that he works with.
