Work Safely. Go Home Safely.
FrameSAFE was designed to take the guesswork out of safety and standardize the process for framers across the country.
The National Framers Council (NFC) was established to educate framers, general contractors, developers, insurance carriers and other industry professionals about the challenges and the liabilities faced by framers every day.
As a means to fulfill its primary mission, NFC has developed a comprehensive, industry-specific, jobsite safety program. Learn more about the FrameSAFE program, subscribe to Framing News and become an NFC Member today!
NFC is a council of the Structural Building Components Association (SBCA). Learn more about SBCA and NFC.
Hear testimonials from framers on why they are members of NFC.
"I originally went to the NFC to find a solution to my OSHA safety concerns and ended up discovering ways to effectively grow my framing company tenfold over the last five years. Interacting with other NFC framers opened my eyes to so many opportunities."
Chris TatgeDynamic Construction“You can talk about your problems with other business owners [in your local area], but to get specific about framing challenges with somebody who really understands them is fun, and very useful. You get useful conversations that will trigger an idea or push us in a particular direction to help us solve some problems.”
Lee NolandMindak Commercial Construction“Customers are impressed when we hand them a copy [of FrameSAFE]; they are absolutely amazed we are doing this,” King says. “It’s a huge draw for them when they see us following safety protocols. It’s one of the reasons we stay extremely busy.”

bit.ly/3EPfwd8 “Our goal has always been to get a safety program into the hands of framers and their subcontractors that is affordable, easy to follow, and in their language. FrameSAFE is specific to framers and allows us to train on the same topics as our subs, to be able to have the same expectations for safety on the job. With the enhancements in version 4, more than ever FrameSAFE will ensure everybody is talking the same talk, looking for the same issues, and making sure the workers are protected in the same manner all the time.” - Ken Shifflett
