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 1
darron Bible
rPM
Darron as he has been a great addition to the maintenance team here in Fargo. He has years of experience in maintenance issues and is very detailed and knowledgeable in all the work orders he does. The communication he does is exactly what this team needs!
Alex Nielsen
RCC
Alex has stepped up in the safety area these past few months. It was recently noticed that he has been taking a new employee under his wing and coaching them in safe practices for finish work. Alex wears his PPE before being asked to and ensures others have theirs on as well.
Dylan Bruner
RCC
Dylan is the future of Roers; he works hard and cares about his job, others, and the company. He has the “whatever it takes” attitude. If he walks by an issue he will fix it or get someone on it right away, shows up early and leaves late . He also is more than willing to step up and fill in for Devin when needed.
DeeEtte Goerger
RCC
Dee has been working diligently behind the scenes in getting a new credit card system set up (which has had a few challenges) and then she has also worked 1:1 with Superintendents and others so they can learn the new system and to be able to put it into action. Change usually comes with challenges, but it also brings new opportunities for better efficiency.
Quarter 2
Lindsey O’Driscoll
RPM
Being able to keep things organized in a hectic 18 months of a project is what Lindsey O has accomplished. Between new hires coming and going, training, turnover, and helping with the managing of opening a new property, she has grown in her role and has become a great leader. Kudos to Lindsey for taking the right path when property issues arise, difficult tenant communications are needed or project deadlines are changed. When The Metropolitan was opening, Lindsey was swamped and likely overwhelmed, but when residents arrived on opening day, they would never have known. She was professional and made each one of them feel welcome. When issues arose in a few units after move in, she calmly listened to each and ensured everything would be taken care of.
Dalton Olson
RCC
I want to nominate Dalton as he is truly a hard worker. He works well with RPMR. Working with him on The Metropolitan has made it so smooth. He listens to our crazy ideas and needs of the building. He faces every issue head on and is doing a great job with the team at The Metropolitan. I am grateful to be working along side of him during this building opening.
Jeff Ekern
RCC
Jeff does an excellent job of keeping jobsites safe. He is not afraid to go after subcontractors that may not be following the safety policies, and give them a little “on-the-job training”. He is an advocate and a poster-boy for PPE. See Picture Attached. Jeff was nominated by the RCC safety committee.
Caden Opheim
rCC
Caden is a great worker on tasks and jobs assigned. He takes responsibility of the job at hand, is always willing to ask questions and learn, and he’s always on time.
Field Crew!
rCC & RW
Field personnel are called on to make sacrifices. We expect our crews to work in all conditions: rain, snow, heat, extreme cold. They work long hours, from one project to the next, no matter the circumstances. You could say they are more reliable than the US mail. “Neither Rain Nor Steel Or Snow Will Detour Us From The Swift Completion Of Our Project.”
I believe the entire team has earned recognition. I would take these crews on any project. Construction is such a time driven industry. It is a recognizable achievement to bring a project in on time.
Quarter 3
Alec Korby
RCC
Alec has really shown that he is a valuable member of the safety committee. He puts the
conversation at the meeting into practice in the field. Alec fills out multiple near misses every month and is on top of all his training as soon as they are assigned. He has shown that not only does he have RCC’s well-being in mind, but all of Roers’ enterprises. He has the guts to come forward and have the hard conversations when something isn’t right.
Dakotah Kapel
rPM
Dakotah has been a great addition to the RPMR team! She’s a go getter and asks questions to better educate herself in her role.
Ethan Saunders
RCC
Ethan always puts in quality effort, and as a result, he is a hard worker, always willing to help & to learn. He has been a great and dependable employee.
Matt Thomas
RW
Being down another office helper/admin, Matt has done an excellent job stepping up
and helping cover the office when we have to run an errand or be gone for a meeting. He has also gone the extra mile to stop by the jobsite while on PTO and even get some shop items to the subs even thought he was on vacation. Thank you, Matt!

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.
