The Importance of Safety Training, Compliance & Our Company!
Routine work can dull alertness and a relaxed attitude can replace the caution that existed when the job was new and interesting. In many jobs the same route is traveled daily over the same roads or the same tasks are repeated with little conscious thought. Without some periodic reawakening to the ever-present hazards, lethargy deepens and the odds of an accident occurring can increase.
Workers may not always recognize the importance of safety training or think of it as unnecessary because they’ve "been doing it for years." But an important benefit of periodic safety training is the reminder that a danger can exist and the no one is immune to accidents. Therefore, it is important for workers to understand the purpose of the training session, why it will be useful to them, and what can result from not following safety rules and procedures.
The safety training should be organized so that the order in which the material is presented will match the steps that should be taken on the job. Make sure every worker understands the training material; not just that they were present or a test was given. Insist on questions from trainees after a session to tell you what did or didn`t sink in. This will let you know what has to be reviewed again. If there`s a general lack of understanding of hazards or safety rules and practices, schedule another safety meeting or plan a refresher course for a later date.
Employees should be able to immediately practice and apply new knowledge and skills. If workers don`t understand safety training information well enough to use it on the job, the training has not been effective. There should be immediate feedback if workers are doing their job safely or not. Supervisors should watch employees do their jobs and question them, to identify what they do, or don`t, know.
Most of these tips are relatively simple and inexpensive solutions, but the safety payoff can be enormous. Remember, training is only effective when workers understand, and use, what they`ve learned. It takes less than a second to lose the rest of your life.
SAFETY is a Basic Human Need
Safety is a need of everyone, everywhere, and at all ages. After our basic human needs of food, clothing and shelter have been met, individuals must feel safe before they can progress and become productive. (Consider how immobilized we were immediately after September 11, both at work and at home).
Over 111 million workers in 7 million workplaces are affected by safety. Each of us wants to go to work in one piece and return to our loved ones with all our parts. Plus, workplace safety is only one-third of our day. Community and home safety are concerns the other 16 hours of our day. Each of us makes decisions in our daily lives that affect our future. Just one careless moment can trigger an accident that will impact us, and our loved ones, the rest of our lives...Physically, emotionally and financially.
Safety Saves Lives & Money
Insurance fees are on the rise and workers` compensation costs are just the beginning. Some companies have found that for every $1 spent wisely on safety, they realize a return of $3. Where else can you achieve a better ROI?
