EllisDon is proud to share that we have been recognized with the Vancouver Island Construction Association’s (VICA) Safety Excellence Award, a distinction highlighting our industry-leading commitment to workplace safety.

This award celebrates contractors who demonstrate exceptional safety performance, as measured by their claims experience with the Workers’ Compensation Board. Participating companies submitted their Experience Rating Premiums, which were benchmarked across the industry to identify top performers in safety.

At EllisDon, safety is more than a priority—it’s a core value. This recognition reflects the strength of our safety culture, built on proactive planning, rigorous training, and a shared responsibility to protect one another. Every team member plays a role in upholding our standards, leading by example, and continuously driving improvement across all our projects.

“This recognition from VICA is a proud moment for our teams on Vancouver Island,” said Mike Griffith, Director, Regional Health, Safety & Environment, EllisDon. “It reflects the discipline and care that go into every phase of our work—from planning to execution. This isn’t just about compliance; it’s about a culture where safety drives performance and innovation.”

From the office to the job site, safety is embedded in everything we do. It’s a mindset that drives innovation, fosters accountability, and ensures that everyone goes home safe, every day.
