"The development of the Safety Series for members was important to the ACCA team and the ACCA Member Services Committee because keeping employees safe should be a top priority for all contractors," said Matt Marsiglio, director of Heartland Academy Operations, Heartland Home Services and ACCA Member Services Committee co-chair. "ACCA is a great source for resources to use during team meetings and trainings and I have relied on them for years. These videos are a perfect resource for all members to use because most of them are five minutes or less. These quick videos that touch on some of the biggest safety concerns all contractors face are worth the price of membership because when we focus on keeping our team members safe, we have less absences due to illness and injury, better work productivity, and we can keep our insurances premiums at a reasonable level by showing we are training on safety and making it a priority."
