Our Safety Metrics

As the adage says, numbers don’t lie.  Two important safety metrics that prospective clients ask us about are our Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) and our Workman’s Compensation Experience Modification Rate (EMR). Many view EMR as a measure of a company’s injury claim severity and annual paid claim volume, whereas TRIR is more a measure of a company’s proclivity to injuries, regardless of how severe. Both are important measures to gain insight into a company’s safety program effectiveness.

While these rates can fluctuate from year to year and having zero incidents continues to be our target, A-Lert takes pride in being well below national averages for these metrics, year in and year out. ( Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics)
