Safety Information

At NYCO we maintain a track record of safety excellence in our industrial and commercial insulation contracting methods. We adhere to a company safety program called STEPS. This acronym stands for Striving Towards Excellence and Professionalism in Safety and incorporates a number of controls that have made us one of the safest insulation contractors in Minnesota and in the Midwest. We incorporate job hazard assessments daily, rigorously enforce proper wear of personal protective equipment, and have safety professionals within our organization to identify hazards on the job site and prevent our workers from sustaining unnecessary injuries. We strive each day to create a more deeply engrained safety culture within our organization.

These efforts have paid off over the years and we are proud to say that our total recordable incident rate (TRIR) was 1.4 in 2010. This means that our work force sustains very few injuries allowing us to deliver projects on time and under budget. To further build on our impressive safety statistics our OSHA frequency rate (FR) was 0.0 in 2010 and our experience modification rate was 0.66. A low TRIR, EMR, and FR affords NYCO the opportunity to offer our customers the lowest possible cost as we remain unencumbered by expensive workers compensation claims that can force companies to charge more for their work.
