Our Mission
From concept to completion, Roers is building success & stronger communities.
Employee Recognition Program
The Employee Peer Recognition Program was created for employees to nominate co-workers for providing outstanding service to a Roers team member or a customer in the performance of their duties, or for appreciation of a co-worker’s attitude, attendance, dedication all while living out our core values.
The Safety Award has been recently introduced to the company. Some examples of criteria for how a recipient can qualify or be nominated for this award include to be involved in the Safety Committee, involvement in safety book discussion, attend safety training, take a lead in ensuring work environment is safe as well as identifying unsafe practices and writing near miss reports or “caught doing good” reports. The recipient of this award should serve as a positive role model and promote safety on a daily basis.
Nominations for this program can be made at any time and will be reviewed monthly. Please submit your entry below, download the form, or pick up a form in the Roers office or on the job sites. Entries can be emailed to Human Resources, or a hard copy can be returned to the office or to your supervisor. Winners will receive a notification by mail as well as a gift card in appreciation for their outstanding efforts. Contact hr@roers.com or call Scott at 701-356-5050 if you have any questions.

Quarter 2
Mack Buck
RMI
Mack worked hard to provide a different approach to safety training/development by arranging a speaker to present to most employees at a construction site. This provided a required training in a unique manner and allowed employees to visit a construction site. I think Mack now ahs a new respect for others that have to arange events as part of their role at Roers. There is a lot of behind the scenes arranging of logistics. Nice job!
Jason Creager
RPMR
Above and beyond more than once! Upon a new hire situation, Jason organized the paperwork for the new employee and was the main point of contact for information that was not included or still needed to create the employee in our system. He was prompt in answering back to emails understanding exactly what was needed. He also helped with a payroll situation for the same new employee, had he not been in Fargo (which was a blessing) the employee would not have received his check until later in the week due to a direct deposit issue. Jason’s response was always, “Thank you,” my response to Jason is no, “Thank you,” for going above and beyond to help another member of your team!
Shelby Barta
RPMR
Shelby is an employee who keeps safety on her mind. She volunteers to keep the minutes for the RPM safety committee and used her quick-wits at our most recent meeting when the network was down by getting us connected via facetime. She turns is near-misses, even though they are harder to come by in her position than in the construction side of the company. |
Karen Tovar
rCC
Karen, has really stepped it up this year working with our H2B employees. Not only does she pick them up for work and drive them home at the end of each day, but she also has been working alongside them in the field to help communicate better with their supervisors. Karen also spends her evenings and weekends many times providing a good experience for the H2B guys. She takes them grocery shopping, takes them downtown on the weekend, has meals with them, and really has shown them what Roers is all about. Thank you for everything Karen!
Quarter 3
Lois Eid
RMI
Lois has taught me so many opportunities to learn throughout the construction side of Roers. The knowledge that she holds and to teach others about it is remarkable. There are days that I am in awe because it’s the little things she knows that most people do not think of. She is patient, sweet, and a beautiful person through and through. Without her, I do not think I would not know much about the Construction side of Roers and all the paperwork that is needed! She is always teaching me to do the right thing, not only with my work but with some other parts of life. If you do not know Lois, then you need to. She is truly a remarkable woman. Without Lois, I would not have grown to who I am within Roers. Plus, who doesn’t enjoy her sense of humor?!
Bonnie Thompson
rPM
Bonnie would be a great candidate for this as she is such a team player. She is always willing to help in any area and any division. She is such a go getter. From keeping the properties looking clean to our offices to even handling snow so we can all get into work safely. She is so knowledgeable about what products should be used or if something doesn’t work right, she usually has another alternative to try. She is such a value to the Roers team and very thankful for her. True Partnership is always shown when it comes to helping out!
Cameron Peltier
RW
Cameron has been helping me out in Dickinson and has taken on a lead role with the guys. I can give him tasks and know that he will get them taken care of even with me not being onsite all the time. He takes the time to try and teach the guys if they don’t know something. He is able to run the guys and manages them very well.
Randy Bischof
RCC
Randy has been a faithful member of the RCC safety committee for over a year now, where his presence and conversation is greatly appreciated. He keeps his sites tip-top when it comes to hazard prevention. He takes it personal when issues are found when an audit is conducted and usually abates the hazards immediately. He always says he doesn’t want to get “dinged” for any violations, they make him look bad! What he actually is doing is keeping our employees safe.
Quarter 4
Brian Bjerklie
rCC
This employee has had Roers’ back for more than a decade. You will never catch Brian not wearing his hi-vis clothing on-site, which says he goes above and beyond the required PPE policy that Roers has in place. Brian has been the guard rail installer for years on our big projects, and you. can always count on them to be up to code without rechecking his work. There is no telling how many lives he has saved over the years due to his consistent safety rail installation. He. is certainly not afraid to speak up on safety issues or any others for that matter.
Rick Roers
RCC
There were 45 years worth of reasons at Ricks retirement party. Rick truly cares about Roers and the people he works with. He is working tirelessly towards a smooth transition. Rick is going to be the man in charge until the day he leaves, continuing to provide insight and guidance to team members on projects that will continue long after his last day . For Anyone that works with Rick it is obvious to see he is far from checked out. He is passionate about what is going on with the projects , still provides his input , he is stern when needs to be and smooths things over when he’s done. He commands attention wherever he goes. A few commonalities in all of the stories about Rick was, his ability to get things done and motivate you to do it, he doesn’t hold a grudge, and Everyone respects him. It was Humbling to see the young and old that came to pay their respects to such a long, loyal career.
Chris Young
RW
Chris has been working with the Choppa brothers and having to figure out a lot of stuff on his own because I am busy on other jobs. He has been helping to transport the Choppa brothers around and to mentor them as well. He is willing to help out and teach and do what is needed to help complete jobs.
Devon Struve
rW
Devon is one of the guys in the field that can be trusted to make things happen on the fly. He is always willing to come in early or stay late to ensure that the job can either get wrapped up or go on the next day as smoothly as possible. He can be reached on a weekend to lend a hand if needed as well. He is one of the guys that is always there. He can step into any task with any of the other field guys and it’s like he’s been there the whole day or week. He fits in anywhere.
