2022 NDA Michael J. Casbon Safety Award

At the annual National Demolition Association Convention, the Rachel Team was awarded the Michael J. Casbon Safety Award – the award honors the legacy of the late Mike Casbon, an expert with 25 years of experience in the fields of demolition, decontamination, and construction. The intention of this award is to honor companies that have demonstrated excellence in safety.

We thank the The National Demolition Association for recognizing Rachel Contracting as a safety leader in demolition! And a congratulation is in order for all demolition award winners!

Rachel Foundation-Black Ice Jig

The Rachel Foundation hosted the 1st Annual Black Ice Jig Ice Fishing contest on Sugar Lake in Annandale, MN! More than 400 people braved the cold weather to support the Rachel Foundation and raise money to give back to the local communities. Over 30 generous companies helped to support the event and make it a success. Lots of fun was had by all that attended and volunteered, and together we raised over $34,000 for the Rachel Foundation!

2021 Chase Award

The AGC of Minnesota recognized the Rachel Team with the 2021 CHASE Level 2 status along with Level 3 Projects!  Kindeva and the UMN Mech Eng Phase 3 were both CHASE level 3 projects. 

This prestigious award speaks volumes to the amount of time and resources that Team Rachel invests on safety training and safety excellence.  By having all employees and trade partners engaged in our safety culture, we are able to maintain an incredibly low Experience Modification Rate (EMR) and Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR).

Rachel Contracting is a very proud member of the Associated General Contractors of Minnesota and also a proud member of the AGC’s CHASE program!
