Overaa was named among the top 40 best places to work among large companies by the San Francisco Business Times. Why? According to CEO Jerry Overaa: 1) We are blue-collar craftsmen and have a great respect for the trade. We take pride in self-performing the work and providing hands-on expertise. 2) During the downturn, rather than lay off loyal employees, Overaa took on projects at cost, just to keep key people employed. 3) We perform an annual average of 600,000 manhours and maintain a low EMR. We are a member of the pretigious Cal/OSHA Voluntary Protection Program (VPP). We invest a significant amount of resources in our safety program because we believe happy and healthy employees will take care of their families, their clients, and each other.
