SERMA was established by Executive Order in 1989; in addition, the Executive Order specified that SERMA be based at the Injured Workers’ Insurance Fund (IWIF).
The Executive Order also established a SERMA Committee to serve as an advisory council and meet quarterly to discuss and share safety best practices among agencies. The current Committee members include representatives from the State’s eight largest Executive Branch agencies as well as representatives from IWIF and SERMA.
