MODULE 3: EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT

Recognition is more a function of leadership than management

If your company does not presently have a formal safety recognition program, it doesn't necessarily mean safety incentives and recognition are not in place. It just means a formal program has not been established.

If real safety leadership exists in your corporate culture, a formal program may not be needed because leaders are providing effective incentives and recognition informally. If effective leadership is not occurring, it's probably a good idea to think about introducing some of the ideas presented in this module to your safety committee or safety director so that your company may implement an effective program.
