Evers & Sons’ HSE Director Named 2025 NSC Rising Star of Safety, Building on a Year of Safety Achievements

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Evers & Sons Inc. is proud to announce that Rudy Garza, Health, Safety, and Environmental Director, has been recognized by the National Safety Council (NSC) as one of the 2025 Rising Stars of Safety. This honor distinguishes safety leaders under the age of 40 who demonstrate visionary leadership, measurable impact, and a commitment to continuous safety improvement. Garza was selected as one of 41 honorees nationwide, featured in the September 2025 Issue of Safety+Health magazine.

Garza’s award-winning work includes the launch of a Risk Observation Card System, integrating QR codes and digital reporting to strengthen hazard and near-miss tracking. In its first month, the program accounted for over 75% of all safety observations across Evers & Sons’ active sites. This accomplishment stands as a powerful example of proactive safety culture by identifying gaps, leveraging user-friendly technology, and reinforcing practices through consistent training and engagement.

The NSC recognition follows a series of notable safety achievements in 2025 for Evers & Sons. Earlier this year, the company was honored with two Safety Awards by the Gas Processors Suppliers Association (GPSA): GPSA Safety Award and Perfect Record Award, recognizing Evers & Sons’ safety excellence in the midstream sector. These awards validate the company’s ability to maintain outstanding safety records across all-scale projects, reflecting a long-standing commitment to protecting both employees and partners.

Together, these honors demonstrate that safety leadership is not just a value at Evers & Sons; it’s a measurable outcome of the systems, culture, and accountability embedded across the company. Evers & Sons’ mission is rooted in building the future of energy safely and responsibly. The company’s ISO-certified management systems, rigorous training programs, and emphasis on hazard recognition and prevention ensure that safety remains at the core of every decision.
