2019 Building Safety Month Theme: ‘No Code, ‘No Confidence’

The International Code Council announced the 39th annual Building Safety Month theme: No Code. No Confidence. Modern, regularly updated building codes and a strong system of code enforcement ensure that individuals and communities are safe in the buildings where they live, work and play – codes build confidence. As we face disasters on an unprecedented scale – from hurricanes and tornados to wildfires and earthquakes – building codes become increasingly important to the safety, health and wellbeing of our families and communities.

Building Safety Month is an international campaign that culminates in May to raise awareness about building safety. The Code Council, its 64,000 members, and a diverse partnership of professionals from the building construction, design and safety community come together with corporations, government agencies, professional associations and nonprofits to promote building safety through proclamations, informational events, legislative briefings and more.

“Building safety is about preparing for the future. The Code Council, in partnership with our members and stakeholders, develops model codes that integrate new technologies and the latest advancements in building science,” said Code Council Board President William Bryant, MCP, CBO. “Building Safety Month is a chance to celebrate the entire building safety community and to educate others about the importance of the codes to each and every one of us.”

“After nearly 40 years, Building Safety Month is still the primary international campaign promoting the importance of the codes in our everyday lives,” said Code Council Chief Executive Officer Dominic Sims, CBO. “Because of the enduring commitment of our members and stakeholders, the campaign reaches tens of thousands of people around the world.”

The weekly themes for 2019 are:

  • Week One, May 1-5: Preparing for disasters: Build strong, build smart.
  • Week Two, May 6-12: Ensuring a safer future through training and education.
  • Week Three, May 13-19: Securing clean, abundant water for all communities.
  • Week Four, May 20-26: Construction professionals and homeowners: Partners in safety.
  • Week Five, May 27-31: Innovations in building safety.

Corporate sponsorship opportunities are available. 2019 campaign sponsors include the American Institute of Architects and the National Electrical Manufacturers Association.
