Nucor Steel Reinforces Their SHARP Status
(Employees of Nucor Rebar Fabrication)

 

Nucor Rebar Fabrication in Idaho creates and sells custom bent reinforcing steel based on plans and specifications provided by construction contractors. The company discovered Idaho Occupational Safety and Health Consultation Program through advertisements and OSHA publications. They started working together in 2012.

The company's number one core value is "we work safe". The program provided an opportunity to enhance workplace safety and showed both customers and employees the genuine dedication to maintaining a safe environment every day.

The partnership has resulted in:

  • Significant change in business practices.
  • Enhanced and improved workplace safety culture.
  • Enhancement of machine guarding and addition of no-touch tools.
  • Enhanced training and education.

Nucor Rebar first received SHARP in 2012, and most recently in 2025. The impact of SHARP on the company has brought several successes.

  • Financial improvements to the bottom line.
  • Significantly reduced rate of recordable incidents, and 
  • A strong reputation with customers as a valuable partner due to their commitment to safe work practices.

The Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program (SHARP) acknowledges small and medium-sized businesses that have used OSHA On-Site Consultation Program services and operate exemplary workplace safety and health programs.
