The CISI Safety Summit includes more than 30 major contractors in the United States. The goal of CISI is to influence not only those within the group, but others to work safely and elevate safety awareness to a new level in the United States. CISI founded the annual Construction Safety Week. The mission of this week is to collectively raise the awareness of the construction industry’s continuing commitment to eliminating worker injury, and to clearly communicate its dedication to a shared culture of care and concern and the belief that every week must be Safety Week.     www.constructionsafetyweek.com
