Our belief
Along with a moral obligation to prevent death, disability and dismemberment, a successful management team realizes the financial effect of accidents and injuries to their bottom line.
It is estimated that the indirect costs associated with each accident are as much as thirty (30) times that of the direct cost.
With a limited number of controlled variable costs, a decreased Experience Modification Rate (EMR) can mean the difference between being competitive in the market place and being out of business.

Our professional and experienced staff of SCS is dedicated to the integration of proven loss control methods to assist clients in protecting their balance sheets through reduced accidents and injuries, thus lowering the cost of doing business, while simultaneously creating a safer, more productive work environment for all.
