LA CROSSE, Wis., October 28, 2020 — J.F. Brennan Company (Brennan) announces certification to occupational health and safety management, quality management, and environmental management in accordance with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
Upon successfully completing certification audits by external auditor and registrar British Standards Institution (BSI), Brennan—an environmental remediation and marine construction contractor—achieved certification to 3 international standards.
To reach this milestone on an inaugural attempt during a pandemic demonstrates Brennan’s dedication to quality and efficiency. Furthermore, it reinforces their commitment to a safe and secure workplace for employees while upholding their vow to act as stewards of the environment.
Brennan began the process of obtaining certification back in 2014. Leading up to certification, they experienced a reduction in accident rates by enforcing a uniform safety, quality, and environmental management culture.

Brennan employs a full-time safety and quality management team to support and enforce ISO standards continually.
