BROOKFIELD, Wisconsin —
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 is taking bold steps to meet that challenge, investing more than $10 million annually in the trades. Among other things, this investment is being used to advance safety education, provide hands-on training, and create real-world solutions that reduce risk on the jobsite. During Construction Safety Week (May 5–9, 2025), that commitment came to life in powerful ways.
In just five days, 385+ Milwaukee Tool employees led safety-focused efforts in partnership with jobsites, unions, and training centers across the country. The result:
- 635+ safety training sessions conducted
- 100,000+ workers reached through hands-on demonstrations and expert-led instruction
- 850+ hours of training provided throughout the U.S.
From engineering personal protective equipment (PPE) that increases comfort and compliance, to designing tools that reduce fatigue and repetitive stress injuries, Milwaukee Tool continues to build safety into every corner of the jobsite.
“Our mission is simple: empower the men and women who build our nation with the knowledge and equipment to do their jobs safely,” said Scott Teson, Senior Vice President of Sales for Milwaukee Tool. “During Construction Safety Week and every week, we’re proud to partner with the trades to turn that mission into measurable impact.”
“The compromise and preparedness leading up to Safety Week are unmatched,” said Jason Garcia, Safety Manager for Turner Construction in Houston, Texas. “[Milwaukee Tool’s] consistent interaction with the team and trade partners on site, not only during construction week but throughout the year, is exceptional.”
Milwaukee Tool has a bold goal of investing a total of $200 million in the skilled trades by 2030 – continuing their unwavering support for the future of the industry. Milwaukee Tool’s long-standing commitment to union and non-union trade organizations, apprenticeship programs, and workforce development initiatives has helped attract thousands of men and women across the U.S. into the skilled trades.
