The Newfoundland and Labrador Construction Association’s Provincial ROCK Awards Program is designed to honour and pay tribute to the outstanding contributions made by the people and the companies that make up the construction industry in Newfoundland & Labrador.

Nominations can be made by NLCA integrated, mixed or affiliated trade associations, as well as individual NLCA member firms, as a further recognition for the nominated firm’s or individual’s successes in excellence in a particular category. Entries are evaluated by the awards judging committee based on a point system, and also by votes cast online by your peers! This committee consists of three experts/leaders in the field related to the award in question. If in the opinion of the committee that a suitable candidate has not been nominated, the award shall not be presented.


Congratulations to all of our 2023 Rock Award recipients!

The Awards for 2023 were presented during NLCA’s ROCK Awards Gala on Saturday, November 4, at the Sheraton Hotel, St. John’s. The leadership and determination to excel is evident by the caliber of nominees and recipients in each of the award categories.
