Ready to improve company safety, productivity and reputation?
Start with a culture check-up. Introducing Builders Code Leadership Training for Owners, Execs, and HR Managers.
Shaping positive worksite behaviour – your own and the behaviour of others – is one of the most important and powerful responsibilities of leadership. An inclusive company culture translates to better productivity and safety outcomes, and can help attract and retain the best workers.
Employers often underestimate the financial impacts of hazing, harassment, and bullying on the worksite. These negative behaviours cause stress and distraction in the crew that can lead to turnover, lost time to accidents, injury related health care costs, legal actions, rehiring costs, and unproductivity.
Builders Code training will show company leaders practical ways to build a positive site culture and ensure everyone on the worksite is safe and protected, working to their full potential.
Visibly prioritizing a modern culture that values diversity in its workforce is also a powerful competitive advantage, especially during this time of low unemployment and intense competition for skilled tradespeople. The Builders Code offers a suite of assets that can help you to market your business to a modern, diverse workforce and client base.
This is a six-hour virtual workshop where participants explore issues such as: the nature and impact of unacceptable worksite conduct; how to enable and encourage an acceptable worksite culture; the tools that can be used to build that culture; and the benefits of doing so.
The sessions will focus on the role and responsibility of corporate leaders and HR managers. Companies whose management completes the training can use their Builders Code training certification to promote their company and culture to potential employees, as well as clients.

- Build awareness across the construction workforce to lead the evolution of the worksite culture to one that is free from unacceptable conduct (hazing, harassment, bullying, and discrimination) to one that is welcoming, supportive, and productive for all workers.
- Facilitate the “unlearning” of attitudinal biases, stereotypes, and inequitable or hostile conduct and practices that create barriers for the success and wellbeing of all workers and companies in the construction trades.
