It takes more than standards and enforcement to support a culture of safety on a project site with more than 300 workers, but Haskell Safety Coordinator Tie Zamble did just that in Madagascar.
For the site`s first full Safety Week, Zamble mixed workers from nine companies into teams that crossed every trade and employer. Painters competed as one, and cleaning staff lined up alongside craft professionals. A week of hands-on training and competition, plus fire-extinguisher training from local Antananarivo firefighters, reinforced one idea: Safety is for everyone.
The site has logged no lost-time, no injuries and roughly 425,000 work hours.

As Florida’s population continues to grow, so does the demand for water.
In Episode 2 of Krystal Clear, Krystal Strassman breaks down what that growth really means for the state’s water infrastructure, and why planning ahead matters more than ever.
Across Florida, utilities are facing increasing pressure to keep up with rising demand. It takes the right strategy and the right partners to stay ahead.
Follow along as we explore what it takes to make every drop count.
What began with the demolition of the Jacksonville Landing in 2019 has evolved into a long-term, city-led effort to restore the St. Johns River as a defining public asset. Haskell has been a consistent partner in turning that vision into reality.
The new Riverfront Plaza has begun to take shape at the former Landing site, where Haskell acted as Construction Manager at Risk and delivered Phase 1 on time and within budget in 2025, setting the tone for what disciplined, collaborative execution can achieve.
Haskell is now leading Phase 2 of Riverfront Plaza and was recently awarded similar roles at Metropolitan Park and Shipyards West Park. Together, the three projects represent a coordinated transformation of Jacksonville’s downtown waterfront. Each space is designed to serve the community differently, but all are grounded in the same principle: reconnect the city to its river.
Tap the link in our bio to explore how these projects are reshaping Jacksonville’s urban core.
