The Goal of a Zero Accident Program is to send all employees home safely every day. Setting up such a program will show everyone in the organization that their company is concerned for their safety and wellbeing. You can’t just tell everyone to “be safe” and expect good results. A back injury, for example, can devastate an employee and their family. An injured employee must deal with doctors, nurses, medication, workers compensation benefits, and sometimes multiple surgeries. Nobody wants their employees to get injured at work.

Elements of the Program include:

• Changing Safety Culture
• Employee Responsibility
• Extensive Communication
• Holding Employees Accountable
• Recognizing Employee Success

The Zero Accident Program has proven to not only enhance employee safety and well-being , but also to increase morale, productivity, and work quality, and to reduce accident related expenditures.
