Are
too many of your employees falling down on the
job?
And yes,
we mean that literally. Do you know how much businesses spend a year on costs
associated with occupational injuries and illnesses? One estimate is about $170
billion. That’s billion with a “b.” And every dollar of those expenditures is
directly related to the bottom line of a company’s profitability – or lack
thereof.
It’s no
secret that job related injuries increase operational expenses (think
absenteeism, re-training and defective parts for starters). Employee morale also
suffers, as well as productivity.
Safe work
environments attract better talent. Better talent produces better products.
Better products produce more sales. And more sales produce . . . well, you get
the picture.
Strong
safety and health programs are proven profit boosters. A Fortune Five company
increased productivity by 13%, while a small, 50-person plant decreased
defective parts and saved more than $265,000.* Those are real, tangible savings
for very little investment.
Don’t
just tell your employees safety is key, show them. Let them know
you recognize they are the best assets your company has. A safe workplace is a
better workplace for everyone. We can help you spread the word with a
professionally produced custom safety video that expressly addresses your
company’s unique situation.
