Each year, Utility Safety Partners (USP) honours the people and organizations raising the bar in damage prevention and utility safety.
This year, ASTEC Safety—led by COO Jeff Mulligan —was named 2024 Member of the Year, jointly recognized alongside Global Training for their industry leadership, advocacy, and commitment to safety excellence.
Why It Matters
ASTEC’s approach to safety training isn’t just about compliance—it’s about real-world impact. From their field experience to the systems they help shape, ASTEC has earned a reputation for showing up, speaking up, and backing it all with action.
They’re also a long-time training partner in the BIS network, with their expertise playing a role in the development of some of our most widely used safety content—including courses approved by USP.
This recognition from USP—the very organization that governs utility safety training in Alberta—is a testament to the quality and integrity ASTEC brings to everything they do.
Congrats to Jeff and the entire ASTEC team—this award reflects not just a moment of success, but years of meaningful, boots-on-the-ground work in making Canadian job sites safer, which is definitely something worth celebrating.
