We are thrilled to announce that Slayden Constructors has been honored once again with the prestigious Associated General Contractors (AGC) Program Recognition Indicating Dedication & Excellence (PRIDE) award. This accolade from the AGC Oregon-Columbia Chapter recognizes Slayden’s steadfast commitment to maintaining the highest safety standards in the construction industry.
The AGC PRIDE award is not new to Slayden Constructors; in fact, it has become somewhat of a tradition. Year after year, they have consistently demonstrated their dedication to safety excellence. This recognition underscores Slayden’s ongoing commitment to protecting their workforce and setting a precedent.
Safety is at the core of everything Slayden does. The AGC PRIDE award acknowledges their proactive approach to safety, comprehensive employee training, and adherence to industry best practices.
As we celebrate this achievement, we remain committed to raising the bar for safety practices in the future.
Slayden Constructors and Jacobs Engineering recently completed a $78 million expansion of the Robert A. Duff Water Treatment Plant for the Medford Water Commission. The project boosts capacity from 45 to 65 million gallons per day and adds advanced filtration, a new reservoir, a modern pump station, and seismic‑resilient redundancies. This upgrade strengthens long‑term water reliability for Medford and the greater Rogue Valley, supporting regional growth and public health.
