Organizations are constantly challenged to improve their results, in order to stay viable as an entity in the competitive marketplace. A key source of preventable costs is losses associated with Workers' Compensation insurance claims, and their related expenses. Safety incentive programs are a commonly used technique to obtain a step-level improvement in outcomes. Join us for this examination of safety incentive programs, as we examine the underlying premises, the common features, and caveats facing those considering implementation or examining their current use of such programs. Based upon both theoretical and empirical examination of programs, this teleconference examines both sides of the issue, and provides reality-based, practical advice about incentive programs.
