Our Experience Modification Rate (EMR) has decreasedwhile the complexity of the work we perform continues to increase. Our EMR effective as of January 2015 is 0.81, which is 19% lower than the industry standard of 1.0. EMR is a company’s determination of how much they pay for workers’ compensation insurance and helps measure the effectiveness of Safety programs. EMR is calculated by comparing a company’s annual losses in insurance claims against its policy premiums over a three-year period. In addition, our Recordable Incident Rate (RIR) of 0.81 is well below the industry average of 3.0. A company’s RIR is calculated by multiplying the number of recordable incidents by 200,000 and then dividing that product by the total number of employee hours for the given time period. Active participation from all employees in Health & Safety programs, policies, and initiatives is essential to the success of safe production and performance.
