CHASE Partnership

CHASE PARTNERSHIP

The Construction Health And Safety Excellence (CHASE) program began in 2003 as a partnership between Minnesota OSHA and AGC of Minnesota. Over 20 years later, it is the longest running partnership with MNOSHA. The program is designed to recognize AGC member contractors for their safety programs and performance, while providing incentives for partnership.
