On March 12, 2014, the Alabama AGC Safety Committee presented Hargrove Engineers + Constructors with its Safety Excellence Award for 2013 and named Hargrove teammate Sonny Weeks the 2013 Safety Leader of the Year. 

The Alabama AGC presented the awards at its 12th Annual Mobile Section, AGC Safety Awards Program with 26 companies in attendance. Hargrove received the Safety Excellence Award for achieving 1.5 million work hours without a recordable or lost time incident during the 2013 work year. The Safety Leader of the Year Award recognizes those who have excelled in their safety performance in the Mobile Metro area throughout the previous year.

"At Hargrove, we put safety at the forefront of everything we do as a company and as individuals," said Dale Strickland, corporate safety leader. "This award demonstrates that our teammates do an exceptional job infusing safety into every job and task they complete both on and off the job."

Hargrove Engineers + Constructors has continued to distinguish themselves as a leader in safety standards through several safety awards and recognitions throughout the years. The company credits this to its safety culture and strict safety procedures on site and in the office, and to its daily safety education moments at the beginning of every meeting.
