Safety Incentive Programs
Employee safety programs are one of the most frequently requested and one of the more effective ways of raising safety performance.
There are numerous ways of achieving the overall goal by basing the criteria for recognition and awards on individual and group tasks such as days without recordable accidents, months without lost-time injuries, decreases in workers compensation claims, and more.
The savings in terms of impact on a company's bottom line through days of lost work, decreased injuries and decreased insurance costs - and of course the safety of workers is very attractive.
If your firm already rewards safe behaviors or is choosing to do so - your firm would be part of a growing and reputable group of companies that is choosing safety incentive programs to reward safe behaviors.
Safe behaviors through our online programs (with offline enhancements if required) are one of many that Perks, as a leading provider of online employee incentive and recognition programs, delivers to its clients.
Perks often focuses on behaviors that can lead to improved education and training in safety improvement such as making safety suggestions and attending safety meetings.
The institution of a safety program incentive solution can demonstrate your company's firm commitment to improving safety and additionally improves safety awareness.
The outcome of a safety program can be easily judged by decreased lost-time injuries amongst other measurable. Furthermore, these programs easily pay for themselves very rapidly.
Through our custom-designed safety programs we individualize our incentive program to your needs. Simply said, as company cultures differ so do the safety problems each is subject to. We look at your needs and the demographics of your workforce to design a program that will achieve a superior outcome.
Company safety issues differ greatly; that means successful incentives take these differences into account. We consider the problems unique to your organization, the demographics of your workforce and the best methods to deliver results.
Safety programs when used properly and within a proper framework of other collaborating techniques can be effective tools for helping to motivate and encourage employees to:
- Practice safe job behavior.
- Reduce accidents and injuries.
- Attend company safety meetings.
The resultant saving in both monetary and human terms in regards to improved safety in the workplace and increased savings on Worker's Compensation insurance can be staggering.
Perks can develop and maintain a program which allows you to significantly improve safety and allows you to cost-effectively communicate with your employees both individually and as a group. Our systems allow you to communicate positive changes and to "keep a score" of safety and the goals.
Furthermore our programs compel management to proactively support participation in a new incentive program to increase safety at the job site. By defining measurable and achievable goals (e.g. reducing lost-time injuries by a specific percentage, or going for a specific length of time without an injury.) like other behaviors - motivation can substantially improve safety performance.
