How to Improve Your EMR

Proven strategies to lower your mod and reduce Workers' Comp costs.

πŸ›‘οΈ

Implement a Return-to-Work Program

Modified duty programs can cut indemnity costs by 50%+ and significantly reduce claim severity β€” the biggest EMR driver.

πŸ“‹

Conduct Regular Safety Training

OSHA-compliant training logs and toolbox talks demonstrate proactive risk management and reduce frequency over time.

πŸš‘

Report Claims Immediately

Early reporting reduces total claim costs by up to 30%. Delayed reporting inflates reserves and raises your EMR.

πŸ“Š

Dispute Inaccurate Claims Data

Review your NCCI Unit Statistical Report annually. Errors in classification codes or payroll can unfairly inflate your mod.

🀝

Work with a Specialty Broker

A wholesale broker with construction expertise can place you with carriers who credit strong safety programs β€” even with a mod above 1.0.

πŸ“‰

Focus on Claim Frequency, Not Just Severity

Multiple small claims hurt your EMR more than a single large one. Target near-miss culture to eliminate frequency.
