We Put Safety First in All Our Railroad Services

We take great pride in creating a safe working environment for our employees and our customers. When RMI, Inc. was founded in 1973, our leaders made a pledge and steadfast commitment to make safety one of our absolute top priorities. Our safety record has always been an important contributor to the success of our railroad field construction projects.


RMI, Inc.’s Safety Department and Safety Manual were established by an in-house team of seasoned professionals. Their many years of rail construction experience helped make our Safety Manual the best in the business (manual available by request). To encourage safe work habits for our field employees, they are all enrolled in our Safety Bonus Program, which allows them to benefit financially from their safe work records. This program is valuable for both RMI, Inc. and our customers, and we have seen impressive results throughout the years. Most recently, at the Mosaic Faustina Plant in Donaldsonville, Louisiana, our team was able to work 4 years/500,000 man hours with no lost time from accidents. 


RMI, Inc. is also a member of ISNetworld, the global leader in contractor management services. With our dedication to achieving and maintaining high quality standards that that exceed industry requirements, you can have confidence in our commitment to the greatest level of care and safety on your jobsite.
