The STEP Safety Management System is an organized approach for analyzing and developing safety and loss prevention programs, that incorporates both OSHA required safety data and self-assessment requirements to give a full, wide-ranging report on the entire nature of your company's safety program(s). STEP was developed in 1989, written by contractors, for contractors, and is designed to benefit both large and small contractors alike.

 There is no charge for this service (unless you are applying for STEP Diamond or Platinum), and your responses are strictly confidential. 

Participating companies score their level of achievement for each component on a weighted point scale and document their incident rates (TRIR and EMR).

Companies receive a recognition level of Diamond, Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze or Participant based on this data.

Questions? Contact Tom VanderLinden at 515-985-1166.

Applications are due by Friday, September 2nd.
