Diversified Earns Rigorous IHSA COR® Certification, Among the Few AV Solution Providers in Canada Recognized for Safety Excellence

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Diversified, a leading global technology solutions provider, has become one of only three audiovisual companies in Canada to earn the Certificate of Recognition (COR®) from the Infrastructure Health and Safety Association (IHSA), a nationally recognized benchmark for excellence in workplace health and safety management.

Long considered the gold standard in the construction industry, COR® certification is rare in the AV sector due to its rigorous requirements, which include extensive internal and external audits, ongoing safety training and continuous improvement processes.

“This isn’t just a certificate on the wall, it’s a living, breathing commitment to safety,” said Mark McPherson, managing director, Diversified Canada. “It tells our clients and partners that we operate at the highest standards to reduce risk, build trust and enable faster, more seamless project delivery.”

The achievement strengthens Diversified’s position as a trusted partner for general contractors and facility managers and also signals that the company is a technology solutions and build partner that requires less oversight, integrates smoothly with top Canadian general contractors and upholds high safety standards. Everyone involved in Diversified’s projects, including subcontractors, are held to this higher level of accountability.

“This recognition sets a new benchmark for safety leadership in the AV industry,” added Gail Johnson, director of safety and security at Diversified. “We believe it will soon become the expectation, not the exception, for technology providers working on complex builds.”

With this milestone, Diversified reinforces its leadership in delivering high-impact AV solutions with uncompromising safety, professionalism and trust.
