October 15, 2024 – Winter Park, FL – As one of the fastest-growing multifamily developers and management companies of attainable workforce housing in the Sunbelt region, Hillpointe has developed a reputation for being leaders in the operations of their construction sites and their communities, especially in the area of workforce safety.
In late September, Hillpointe was recognized by ICW Group Insurance Companies for its exemplary approach to workplace and operational safety with the ICW Safety Award. The ICW Group works closely with its clients to create a safe workplace that reduces claim frequency and severity. ICW partners with companies of all sizes across hundreds of industries to significantly reduce risk and save on the cost of workers’ compensation insurance. The ICW Safety Award is given out when a company exemplifies its commitment to safety.
“While conducting visits with the Hillpointe Risk & Safety Team, I observed the team’s great dedication to ensuring the safety of their job sites, exemplified by their thoroughness in following safety protocols and proactive safety approaches. Hillpointe’s ‘out of the box’ thinking and methods, including using QR codes for safety resources, make them stand out from other companies. We are proud to give Hillpointe the ICW Safety Award to honor their innovation and dedication to the safety of their employees,” said Zara Rojo, Risk Management Consultant/Risk Management Services for ICW Group Insurance Companies.
“It is a real honor to be recognized for our dedication to safe practices on our construction job sites by ICW, our trusted workmen’s compensation insurance partner. Our entire team is passionate about ensuring we provide a safe workplace for our contractor partners, our team members, and others visiting our construction sites. And we don’t stop when the building is completed. Our safety practices continue throughout the lease-up process and the everyday maintenance of our communities,” said Derek Lodge, Director of Risk Management for Hillpointe.
Hillpointe is deeply committed to safety, which is a fundamental value that influences all aspects of its operations. As the company continues to grow and expand its presence in the multifamily housing sector, prioritizing safety remains a top focus. Hillpointe is setting the standard for workforce safety in construction and property management through forward-thinking approaches and a dedication to innovation.
