What the Highwire Platinum Safety Award Means

- Injury and illness rates
- EMR performance
- DART rates
- Recordable case rates
- OSHA experience
- Safety program initiatives
- Management systems and documentation
According to Highwire, the program is designed to help organizations identify, monitor, and mitigate contractor risk while serving as a strong predictor of future safety performance.
