Safety Programs Can Reduce Insurance Costs
A driving force behind improving safety in organizations is utilizing a safety incentive program.
A wide variety of organizations see a safer work environment as a key to their long-term success, from manufacturing companies and pharmaceutical labs to construction organizations and trucking firms.
In fact, safety incentives reduced insurance claims by an incredible 65 percent at trucking firms that ran safety incentive programs, according to a study of truck drivers by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
In addition to ensuring a safer work environment, this type of program shows evidence of securing increased levels of employee loyalty.
Why?
Many employees would prefer to stay in their current position than bolt for a new company and have to start “collecting points” from the beginning.
