FERMA Corporation is proud to announce that our 2025 Experience Modifier Rate (EMR) has been set at 0.62—the lowest in company history. This milestone reflects our continued commitment to safety, training, and operational excellence across every division.

The EMR is an industry benchmark used to measure a company’s safety performance, with lower numbers indicating fewer workplace incidents and stronger risk management. An EMR of 1.0 represents the industry average; FERMA’s 0.62 places us well below that mark, demonstrating the success of our proactive approach to jobsite safety.

“This achievement is a direct result of our team’s diligence and safety-first mindset,” said [Avery Brown, Safety Director at FERMA Corporation]. “Every employee plays a role in maintaining safe worksites, and this record-low EMR shows how seriously we take that responsibility.”

From comprehensive safety training and pre-task planning to advanced equipment monitoring and field audits, FERMA continues to invest in programs and practices that protect both our workforce and our partners.

Reaching a 0.62 EMR not only strengthens FERMA’s position as an industry leader, but also reinforces our ongoing promise to deliver excellence—safely and efficiently—on every project.
