What it reported doing in 2024

The coalition for construction safety certification program sets specific criteria for construction contractor safety programs. Companies can attain one of the four levels based on the review and audit of their safety programs. The coalition for construction safety certification program aims to improve safety for all workers by providing feedback to participating contractors to help continuously improve jobsite safety so that workers return home to their friends and family each evening. The coalition for construction safety certification program database has over 800 companies who participate in the program. According to the Indiana department of labor, the reduced number of construction jobsite incidents in the state can be directly related to the coalition for construction safety certification program and its emphasis on robust safety programs.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
