Achieving compliance is essential — but it doesn’t always reflect how prepared contractors are to manage real-world safety risks. Organizations need clearer insight into safety maturity to make smarter, more strategic decisions.
Developed with the National Safety Council and key partners, Avetta’s Safety Maturity Index (SMI) is a data-driven framework designed to assess, verify, and improve contractor safety across the supply chain.
This white paper explains how SMI helps organizations move beyond compliance to build a proactive, resilient safety culture.
