Safety & Loss Control for Construction Clients

Complying with established safe work practices and regulations isn't only a moral and legal obligation; it is essential to remain competitive in the marketplace. There has been a dramatic shift in the insurance industry to prequalify suppliers, vendors, and contractors working within a given company. Items such as claims history, Experience Modification Rating (EMR)*, strength of written safety programs, and a variety of other standards are now used in the prequalification process for bids of all kinds. Deficiencies in any of these areas can be utilized as reason to not award contracts, projects, or purchase orders to companies.

Running a business is demanding and many owners are not experts on every intricate safety requirement or standard. Our on-staff safety professionals are here to assist in administering safety programs and supplementing safety protocols. Clients who take advantage of these services typically see a decrease in the loss frequency and severity of insurance claims while experiencing lower insurance premiums as a direct result.

* The Experience Modification Rating (EMR) is utilized by insurance agencies to determine the cost of compensation premiums for workers. This rating reflects a variety of indicators, such as injury costs or claim history, to predict future risk.
