When you think about it we spend considerable amount of our lives with our co-workers, we come to know them not just on a performance level, but also on a personal level…they are part of our lives.  In the day to day operations of our organizations, to meet our customers needs, and so focused on making things happen, it is so easy to forget being safe…to take the necessary steps to do the job per procedure and in a way that will keep ourselves and our co-workers around us from harm. 

Studies have shown that the more we can talk about safety, the more we can reinforce proper techniques, the more we can consider the human aspect, the compassion and care we have for one another as co-workers, an environment of safety will flourish.  Recognizing operational performance or milestone completion of a safe working environment is a very effective way to help all your team members be on the “safety” bandwagon.  This is something that is healthy for our lives and relationships because there is nothing more tragic than to have a co-worker incur debilitating injuries…there is nothing more unnecessary that removes profit from your bottom line than recurring healthcare expenses from injuries that could be prevented.

Reinforce the value placed on maintaining safe work practices and a safe work environment by investing in a safety recognition program.  By rewarding those employees that exhibit the desired behaviors and results you can develop and foster a positive “safe” culture within your organization.
