Re-engaging Our Warriors
Master Your Military Transition
G&C Fab-Con is committed to providing jobs to the men and women who have served our country, and we see a number
of great opportunities in the construction industry right here at home. G&C Fab-Con works to recruit, train and retain top talent
from all service branches.
Apprenticeship Program
G&C Fab-Con has recently gained registration in the US Department of Labor’s Apprenticeship Program. The Registered
Apprenticeship Program (RAP) is a proven model of apprenticeship that has been validated by the U.S. Department of Labor or
a State Apprenticeship Agency. Apprenticeship is an industry-driven, high-quality career pathway where employers can develop
and prepare their future workforce, and individuals can obtain paid work experience, classroom instruction, and a portable,
nationally-recognized credential.
Vetrest and Rebuilding Warriors
G&C Fab-Con is a proud contributor to both non-profit initiatives. Vetrest provides veterans the opportunity to farm in safe environments so that they may grow healthy food for our nation with
chapters coast to coast. Vetrest also provides Veterans Forum which is a weekly online radio station that discusses issues
impacting todays veterans. It deals with issues of homelessness, PTSD, the VA, and just about anything in between.
Rebuilding Warriors provides highly trained and socialized Service/Companion Dogs to Veterans diagnosed as Amputees as well as
with PTSD, (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury). Most of the dogs are bred especially for this mission
and have a highly sought after demeanor. These dogs are provided to Honorably Discharged Veterans from any branch of the
Armed Forces or from any service era meeting the eligibility standards as well as First Responders.
LEED/Commissioning
Besides being mandated by Executive Order and the Energy Policy Act, commissioning is an integral part of the construction process. It not only ensures the success of a project but is simply a good business practice as well. The process requires open communication and collaboration between the VA and all interested parties and G&C Fab-Con ensures that this occurs on projects. A qualified LEED Coordinator/Commissioning Agent is provided to coordinate all commissioning with the VA and fully participates in each stage of the construction, turnover and warranty periods.
G&C Fab-Con understands that the commissioning process is an integral part of complying with various energy and sustainable mandates, while ensuring the building performance requirements are met and quality control plans are implemented. G&C Fab-Con is very familiar with the VA’s LEED and commissioning requirements from a number of past VA projects, and most recently a project at the Cape Canaveral National Cemetery (CCNC) was awarded a construction excellence peer review and achieved LEED Silver Certification for both the CCNC maintenance complex and CCNC administration building.
Site Health & Safety
Through education of our workers, safe work planning, and implementation of applicable safety standards G&C Fab-Con is committed to providing quality service in a safe work environment. The objective of our site-specific Accident Prevention Plan (APP) is to provide direction and guidance to ensure the health and safety of all field personnel, resident employees, occasional visitors, observers, contractors, and the public during specific field activities to be completed under this contract.
G&C Fab-Con provides a clean, safe, and healthy workplace as well as the best equipment possible to accomplish the job. Employees/subcontractors/visitors will work safely, observe all safety rules, report all safety infractions, and keep the project site clean and organized.
