 SAFETY INCENTIVE
PROGRAMS

Two types of safety programs found exist:

 Rate-based programs
 rewards workers for achieving low rates of reported injuries or
illnesses

Purpose Of Safety Incentive Programs for helping to
motivate and encourage employees to:

1. Practice safe job behavior.

2. Follow the safety rules and regulations at workplace.
3. Reduce accidents and injuries.
4. Attend company safety meetings.
5. Promote safety culture in the workplace
An effective safety incentive program includes the
following:

 A safety policy for employees, customers and visitors

 Standard operation procedure (SOP)
 Policies that well describe employee responsibilities for safety at
work
 A health, safety and environment committee and appointed safety
personnel
 Methods for appropriate corrective action
 Management’s support for the safety
 A performance appraisal system including safety performance
EFFECTIVENESS OF THE
PROGRAM
 EFFECTIVENESS OF THE
PROGRAM
 The following strategies are recommended for enhancing the
effectiveness of incentive programs.

1. Define objectives
- what is supposed to be accomplished.

2. Develop specific criteria

- On what basis will the incentives be awarded?
3. Make rewards meaningful
- To determine what types of rewards will be meaningful, it is
necessary to involve employee

4. Recognize that only employees who will participate in

an incentive program know what incentives will motivate
them
5. Keep communications clear
- continual feedback, listen to
feedback

6. Use nonmonetary rewards

7. Reward teams
- Rewarding team can be more
effective than rewarding individuals
 OSHA’S STAND ON SAFETY
INCENTIVES
 OSHA‘ concern is that safety incentives that are not properly
handled might encourage employee to cover up safety problems
rather than report them.

 Example : A minor accidents occurs but the individual involved does

not report it because of the peer pressure from his colleagues and
direct pressure from his supervisor to keep quiet.
EDUCATION AND TRAINING
 NOISH

environment to all employees and others involved in or affected by its
operation taking into account statutory requirement and relevant

 Implementation and effectiveness of this policy is a line management

responsibility together with the participation and involvement of all
employees and NIOSH will ensure that adequate resources, training
and time are made available. 
 OSH matter will be given equal priority with other major business
objectives.
 
 Safety and Health management systems and programs will be
regularly reviewed to ensure continuous improvement.

Campaign  Be mindful of mental health.

Roles  Encourage employees to take simple steps to reduce

stress, like taking several breaks a day to go for a walk, chat with a
co-worker, or just get outside for a breath of fresh air.

  Example 3 : Promote Wellness in the Workplace

Campaign  5 Minutes Morning Exercise

Roles  Encourage employees to do a simple exercise before

start their work. Employee need to be in workplace 5 minutes before
work time.

Contribution  Increase the productivity and spirit of employees to

work.

So, the company must provide the prize to the winner of every
month. Winners must have the specific criteria such as lowest
number of MC and have a good work performance. So with this
awarded, employee will take seriously about the safety in their
workplace and will reduce the number of accident in work place.

 CONCLUSION
 As a result, promotion strategies relating to safety and health
have one overall goal; which is to gain and maintain the
commitment of all personnel to working safely. The two
approaches to persuasive communication are projective &
receptive communication.
 Safety training should be a fundamental part of any effort to
promote safety. Safety training ensures that employees know
how to work safely, and it shows that management is committed
to safety.
 Safety committees can help promote safety if they are properly
structured. The composition of the committee can be a major
factor in the committee’s success. The most effective
committees are composed of a broad cross-section of workers
representing all departments.
