Postler & Jaeckle Corp., a Rochester, NY Mechanical Contracting firm, announced that they have received the 2022 MCAA/CNA Safety Excellence Award.

This prestigious award is presented to the top five mechanical contracting companies in North America, based on the number of hours worked. The award recognizes innovative safety initiatives and safety program success. Postler & Jaeckle Corp. earned the Safety Excellence Award for their company size category (250,001 – 450,000 Work hours). Postler & Jaeckle’s organization-wide safety approach set the company apart.

Postler & Jaeckle Corp. has incorporated safety as a fundamental core value in all their construction processes. P&J established and continually updates its Safety Program to promote the health and well-being of all employees and others on their job sites and in their facilities. In addition to utilizing specific safety and health procedures, policies and training programs that require both management and employee responsibilities, P&J continuously adjusts current best practices, as they regularly assess safety experience, reflect on “lessons learned” and encourage employees to share ideas and report any potential hazards. Given these efforts, new policies and procedures are constantly being implemented to enhance P&J’s Safety Program. Specifically, in 2022 Postler & Jaeckle established a company-wide initiative focused on the health of their employees, which included the installation of AEDs in every fixed office within the company and a wall with the slogan “This is why we work safely.” The program reached all levels of employment by asking for photos of employees with people that are special to them – family, friends, etc.

Erich Postler, C.E.O. at Postler & Jaeckle Corp, emphasizes the value and necessity of safety at P & J. “It is such an honor to receive the MCAA/CNA Safety Excellence Award. It means so much to be recognized by our peers for something that is so very important to us,” said Postler. “Safety is a core value and our first priority at Postler & Jaeckle.  It is at the forefront of everything we do.”

Postler & Jaeckle Corp. was established in June 1964 as a mechanical contractor in Rochester, NY. Founded by two brothers, Erich and Werner Postler and their friend Bill Jaeckle. Since then, we have been growing as a reputable contracting company that provides excellent services and craftsmanship.

About the MCAA/CNA Safety Excellence Awards Program

Back in the 1990s, MCAA partnered with CNA Insurance to bring MCAA members the MCAA/CNA Safety Excellence Awards Program. It is a fiercely competitive program, which results in only the best of the best competing for the awards. Participants are required to describe their respective safety programs in detail, why they believe they deserve the award, and how they achieved safety excellence.

The Safety Awards Selection Taskforce, which is led by CNA, carefully evaluates each submission looking for safety leadership, an advanced safety culture, effective leading indicators of safety performance, and innovative safety initiatives that helped the company achieve such a high degree of safety excellence. The awards are presented at the MCAA Awards of Excellence Breakfast during the association’s annual convention where more than 1,000 people gather to celebrate excellence in the mechanical construction industry.
