If you’ve been in business for any length of time, you’ve likely heard about—or learned—one of the most important lessons there is to learn in the concrete pumping industry: If you have a claim, contract language can be the deciding factor in initiating complete risk transfer and suffering a policy limits loss.
As we all know, our world is responding to shifts in how we live and work resulting from the global coronavirus pandemic. Throughout the majority of this year, there’s been one challenge after another as companies have scrambled to adjust to a world where stay-at-home orders and social distancing initially brought business operations to a halt or reduced pace. Now they are forced to consider how to execute even the most routine of workplace tasks in the future.
Among the highlights of 2020 for the American Concrete Pumping Association was awarding the first Bob Weatherton Scholarships to two inspiring students. The scholarship is named in honor of the late “Big Bob” Weatherton of The Concrete Pump Store in California, who passed in 2016. Bob served on the ACPA Board of Directors for more than 40 years and is remembered as one of the industry’s most avid champions.
