Covilli to Executive Vice President of Safety & Risk Management and Gustavo “Gus” Jaramillo to Vice President of Safety, Compliance, and Training.

The promotions recognize two leaders who have been central to building a safety culture that extends from the corporate office to every team member in the field. That culture has produced one of the most decorated safety records in the industry.

4M has earned the BSCAI Safety Award for Large Companies 29 of the past 30 years. The honor is presented annually by the Building Service Contractors Association International. It recognizes the company with the single best safety record in its category, as determined by an independent panel of industry experts.

Tom Covilli has been a member of 4M’s Executive Leadership Team for nearly two decades, building and sustaining one of the most recognized safety programs in the industry. Promoted from Vice President of Safety & Risk Management, he now leads the Corporate Safety Department with expanded responsibility for loss prevention, OSHA compliance, safety training, hazard assessment, and workers’ compensation and general liability management.

Covilli held the Certified Industrial Hygienist designation from 1987 through 2025 and remains a member of the American Board of Industrial Hygiene, the American Industrial Hygiene Association, and the American Society of Safety Professionals.

Gustavo “Gus” Jaramillo — Vice President, Safety, Compliance, and Training

Gus Jaramillo brings more than 37 years of facility services experience to his new role, including more than 20 years with 4M. Promoted from Corporate Safety Director, he now carries expanded responsibility for safety compliance and training across the organization. Prior to joining 4M, Jaramillo held director-level training positions with two leading commercial cleaning companies, where he developed deep expertise in operations, compliance, and workforce development.

At 4M, he has been widely recognized for his leadership of the Lead 360 Training Program, prepping hourly Team Members for managerial roles, and his commitment to building safety and compliance capability at every level of the organization. Jaramillo holds the Certified Building Service Executive designation through the Building Service Contractors Association International and is an active member of the American Society of Safety Professionals.
