In business since 1945, Tarlton Corporation, based in St. Louis, MO, is a general contractor and construction management firm for a host of industries, including sustainable construction, life sciences, power utility and others. The firm used its experience in weathering a number of downturns to come out ahead of many of its peers in 2009, conducting some "right-sizing" with office staff and filling those voids through a partnership with another company. A certified woman-owned business, Tarlton excels in incentivizing its unionized workforce of 371 to do their best work with practices including extensive training sessions and open-book management. This in part helped the business to finish 2009 with a Safety Total Incident Rate below the industry average.
