We are building opportunities
We are building better lives for each other
Messer has been a finalist in the Associated General Contractors of America’s Construction Safety Excellence Awards four times in five years. With Messer, you are working with one of the safest firms in the nation.
Messer is not owned by a small group of people or a family. Instead, employees own the company, and the company's success is tied to employees' success through engagement, growth and opportunities.
We are building economic inclusion in construction
Economic inclusion is not just a phrase at Messer: it is embraced starting at the top with our president and CEO and carrying through to every office and region where we do business. Messer focuses on workforce engagement, supplier engagement and community engagement strategies to deliver long-term impact.
We are building craftsmanship
Messer's professional Craftforce includes carpenters, laborers and heavy equipment operators with a comprehensive understanding of safety requirements, materials and specs, and quality and cost control measures. Through self-performance work, the Craftforce brings its skill and talent to every project to safely construct dreams into reality. They do this for customers focused on delivering health and wellness, higher learning, food and beverage, mixed-use spaces, culture and entertainment, and more to the neighborhoods and communities where team members live and work.
We are building our people
Messer employees grow by staying engaged in mentoring, coaching, training and networking. With Messer’s strategic focus and employees’ dedication, we see successful outcomes from opportunities like the Craft Leadership Program, Apprenticeship Programs, Urban Workforce Development Initiative (UWDI), and more. Other in-house programs focus on delivering best practices and innovation including Builders of the Future, Emerging Leadership Series, Advanced Leadership Series, and annual summits for our Craftforce and Operations teams: all geared toward subject matter experts coming together to learn from each other and help others grow.
We are building community
Community means being a partner to the people and organizations that surround us. It means supporting our clients not just through the construction of their projects, but also through their vision and commitment to the communities they serve. We celebrate the opportunities to give back through funding, time and talent; this includes our Messer Foundation Grant awarding up to four nonprofit organizations $30,000 each.
The Messer Foundation Grant seeks to support organizations that advance the interests of society in the areas of economic inclusion, education, workforce development or environmental stewardship. Learn more about the Grant.
