Business plan for Safety
Ineffective accident prevention leads to occupational injuries and illnesses. As a result, workers’ compensation insurance costs skyrocket and profits plummet. It is not unusual to see a company with poor injury and illness performance pay three or four times the insurance premium its competitors pay. To combat this at iSafe we operate a 10 step business plan for Safety:
- Visible/Active Senior Management Leadership
- Employee involvement and recognition
- Medical treatment and return to work practices
- Communication
- Timely notification of claims
- Safety and health process co-ordination and employer education
- Written orientation and training plan
- Written and communicated safe work practices
- Written Health & Safety Policy
- Record keeping and data analysis/review
