Farmington, CT – KBE Building Corporation announced it has recently been recognized for its exemplary efforts in ensuring safe work sites.
Associated Builders and Contractors has awarded KBE the Diamond STEP award, its highest safety recognition. This is the third consecutive year that KBE has earned Diamond level recognition, which is based on the firm’s exemplary record of low accident rates on its jobsites. KBE has been consistently recognized over the last 25+ years with Platinum and Gold STEP awards.
In addition, KBE has achieved an Experience Modification Rate (EMR) of 0.65 for the current rating period. The EMR is a measure used by the insurance industry to evaluate a company’s safety performance. A lower EMR indicates fewer workplace accidents and a strong safety culture, leading to lower insurance premiums. Achieving an EMR of 0.65 places KBE well below the industry average.
“Our EMR rating of 0.65 reflects the hard work and dedication of our staff and the leadership of our Safety Team,” said Mike Kolakowski, president and CEO of KBE Building Corporation. “Safety is not just a priority; it is a core value at KBE. We invest in rigorous training and preventive measures to ensure that every worker returns home safely at the end of the day.”
