Everyday more than 13,000 workplace accidents occur. Safety incentive programs can be powerful tools for employers to get employees to take safety procedures and protocols seriously and to integrate them into their work routines.

Here are some of the reasons that leveraging the power of incentives can help you minimize the number of accidents and maximize workplace safety.

Most often when we think about employee safety, we may think of hard hats, reflective clothing, and safety goggles. We don’t necessarily think about treadmills, softball teams, and lunchtime run/walk groups. But the reality is, they are inextricably linked.

Employee safety and wellness are fast becoming a top priority for organizations. In a given year, companies spend over $170 billion in costs associated with occupational injuries and illnesses. To reduce these costs, and to keep employees engaged and healthy, you need a successful safety incentives program, but that will not create itself. Employees do not just see a safety program and buy in 100% for an indefinite amount of time. Employees need to be incentivized to engage in the programs that you are putting out there for their, and your, benefit.
