THE S*A*F*E* PROGRAM
Safety, through Awareness Focus and Education

Inescapable messaging is the cornerstone of the SafetyWorld's S*A*F*E* Program -- S*afety A*wareness F*ocus and E*ducation.

This S*A*F*E* program is based on a study developed by Stanford university, which discovered changing behavior through "inescapable messaging". Five medium sized towns were selected for the study. Two were blanketed with messaging about healthy eating and exercising regularly to reduce heart disease. The other towns did not receive any messaging. They noticed that the town who was receiving the messaging experienced a drop in heart related illness and death rates, while the other town's illness and death rates remained the same. The study concluded that people can learn to behave more safely if they are educated as to how to behave.

Regular inescapable awareness messaging can help reduce injuries in the workplace. Here is an article describing this type of learning.

From our library of over 250 safety topics, you choose 12 for your annual S*A*F*E* program. You then start receiving a different theme message every month through our wall posters, table tents, employee cards, quiz cards and meeting outlines:

  • Reduce lost time injuries.
  • Regularly cover mandated topics.
  • Identify and focus on the workplace hazards that cost you most injuries - and cause a drain on profits, save you money in Workers Compensation Costs.
  • Place 15" x 20", 17" x 22" and 11" x 17" Wall Posters at strategic points in your facility to publicize the theme of the month in a short visual message.
  • 11" x 17" Wall Safety Bulletins and Table Tents go into much more detail, offering valuable safety tips. Place safety bulletins near employees workstations and table tents in break rooms or cafeterias.
  • Safety Meeting Outlines contain a complete guideline for running a productive and useful meeting-step by step, and you can customize add your own notes in the space provided. The Safety Meeting Outline will help you keep your meeting on schedule and on topic. As an additional option, matching videos are also available. Employee Safety Cards match the poster theme of the month, and contain summary information to match your Safety Meeting Outline. Your employees can refer to these cards after your monthly meeting to remind them of important aspects of your safety program. The Quizzes make sure everyone was paying attention. When handed back in, they provide a record of who attended the session.

Following the Safety Meeting Outline, supervisors or team leaders conduct a safety meeting with their crews covering a safety issue of your choice.

The safety meeting outline provides a structured explanation of the safety topic. Outlines are generally divided into several parts so that the meeting can be broken into short, five minute segments. Supervisors can choose the segments that apply to their crews.

During the safety meeting, supervisors pass out Employee Safety Cards that reinforce the meeting content, and follow up with "Scratch off" Quizzes.

The safety cards provide each employee with a copy of pertinent safety information. The quizzes give helpful discussion points during the meeting and also document attendance. If safety incentives are offered, they can be used for a safety draw.
