On Monday July 13th, Bowen celebrated one year at the AEP Mountaineer Carbon Capture jobsite without a recordable injury. Over 40 pipefitters, 30 electricians, and 20 office support staff enjoyed a smoked/pulled pork lunch as the noted milestone of this event.
The celebration was jointly funded by Miller Electric and Bowen and the craft was served by staff members from both companies. The safe work culture has been a project team commitment since inception in 2008. Bowen’s focus has always been to have people go home to their families each night.
“Safety is everyone’s responsibility”, said General Superintendent Burt Bush. “All employees of Bowen and all craft workers are accountable for themselves and each other. It’s not just the safety people’s job – safety is everyone’s effort. Each day, the craft makes us successful with their safe work.”
Chris “Schmo” Schmalz is Business Development Director for Bowen’s Columbus, Ohio team. Chris joined the Bowen team in 2006.
