Milwaukee Tool reaches 100K-plus workers during 2025 Construction Safety Week
Each year, more than 150,000 construction workers are injured on the job in the U.S., a sobering reminder that even as the industry navigates challenges like rising material costs and shifting trade policies, the protection of frontline workers must remain a top priority. Milwaukee Tool invests more than $10 million annually in the trades. Among other things, the investment is being used to advance safety education, provide hands-on training and create real-world solutions that reduce risk on the job site. During Construction Safety Week (May 5-9), over 385 Milwaukee Tool employees led safety-focused efforts in partnership with job sites, unions and training centers across the country. More than 635 safety training sessions were conducted, and over 100,000 workers were reached through hands-on demonstrations and expert-led instruction. And over 850 hours of training was provided throughout the U.S.
