Safety Manager Receives Lifesaver Award
We are proud to announce that Brian Bogard, Tonn and Blank Construction’s Safety Manager, has been honored with the esteemed Lifesaver Award by the Northwest Indiana Business RoundTable. This award is a testament to Brian’s extraordinary humanitarian efforts, both at work and away from it, reflecting his dedication to safety and the well-being of others.
The Lifesaver Award recognizes individuals who have gone above and beyond the call of duty to prevent injury or save a life. At a customer appreciation dinner, one of our customers started choking. Per his training, Brian asked him if he was choking. He indicated he was, and without hesitation, Brian administered the Heimlich maneuver. Brian’s training as a safety professional may have saved the man’s life. His quick thinking and assistance during a critical moment have set a high standard for all of us.
Brian’s decisive action underscores the importance of safety training and awareness, not just on the job site but in everyday life. His ability to remain calm under pressure and apply his training effectively highlights why safety should be a paramount focus for everyone.
Safety is an integral part of our culture at Tonn and Blank Construction. We are committed to ensuring that our employees are equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to handle emergencies, whether at work or in their personal lives. Brian’s lifesaving act is a powerful reminder that safety protocols and training are not just regulatory requirements but essential life skills that can make the difference between life and death.
Brian’s achievement is a source of inspiration for all of us. It serves as a poignant reminder that our commitment to safety extends beyond the job site, influencing how we respond to emergencies in all areas of our lives. As we celebrate Brian’s award, we are reminded of the vital importance of maintaining a strong focus on safety, vigilance, and readiness to act in times of need.
Please join us in congratulating Brian Bogard on receiving the Lifesaver Award. His dedication to safety and his selfless act of heroism exemplifies the best of Tonn and Blank Construction. We are honored to have him as part of our team and look forward to continuing our shared commitment to creating a safer world for everyone.
