CHARLOTTE, NC, April 28, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Wayne Brothers Companies is proud to announce a major company milestone: 5.75 million work hours without a lost time accident.

For a construction and engineering company performing complex work across demanding jobsite environments, this achievement represents much more than a number. It reflects a companywide commitment to planning, communication, training, leadership, and personal accountability.

Wayne Brothers performs work throughout the Southeast, supporting clients across the Carolinas, Tennessee, Georgia, Virginia, and surrounding markets. Its teams operate across a wide range of services, including concrete, geostructural solutions, civil and infrastructure work, industrial services, piping, millwright work, fabrication, and engineering. Across each of these disciplines, safety remains central to how work is planned and performed.

"This milestone belongs to our people," said Keith Wayne. "You do not reach 5.75 million hours without a lost time accident because of luck. It happens when crews take ownership, leaders stay engaged, and everyone understands that going home safe is the most important part of the day."

The company's safety culture is built around practical habits that are reinforced daily in the field. Crews are expected to plan work before it begins, communicate clearly, identify hazards early, and speak up when something does not look or feel right. These habits help teams make better decisions, reduce risk, and protect one another on every jobsite.

Wayne Brothers' current safety performance includes 5.75 million work hours without a lost time accident, a 0.54 EMR, and a 0.0 TRIR. These results reflect consistent effort across field operations, project management, safety leadership, training, and support teams.

The milestone also reflects the type of workplace Wayne Brothers continues to build for current and future team members. The company offers career opportunities for skilled craft professionals, operators, laborers, foremen, superintendents, project managers, engineers, safety professionals, estimators, and support staff who want to grow with a company that values safety, training, teamwork, and accountability.

For Wayne Brothers, strong safety performance is closely connected to career development and long-term success. Safer jobsites create stronger crews, better leaders, more predictable projects, and a healthier workplace culture. Whether someone is beginning a construction career, advancing in the trades, or stepping into leadership, the expectation remains the same: respect the work, understand the risks, protect your teammates, and take pride in doing things the right way.

Reaching 5.75 million hours without a lost time accident is a proud moment for Wayne Brothers, but the company views the achievement as a point of momentum rather than a finish line. Each new project brings new challenges, changing conditions, and new opportunities to reinforce the standards that made this milestone possible.

Wayne Brothers is proud to celebrate 5.75 million safe work hours and remains committed to protecting its people, strengthening its teams, and building safely across the Southeast.
