The National Railroad Construction and Maintenance Association (NRC) recognizes their members who have strong workplace safety programs. These safety awards are given to companies who demonstrate a commitment to safety and understands the importance of providing a safe work environment. Awards are presented to applicants based on the scores from these six areas:

• Workers’ Compensation Experience Rating

• OSHA Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses

• OSHA Statistics Violations

• Roadway Worker Protection Training

• Safety Program Elements

• Company Vehicle Accident Score

Based on the score a company receives, they will fall in one of four award categories. A score of 60% - 69% receives Bronze, 70% - 79% receives Silver, and 80% - 99% receives Gold.
