This chart can be used to estimate the approximate amount of increased sales necessary to offset the cost of a workplace accident or injury. First, find your company’s approximate profit margin in the row across the top of the chart. Then, find the cost of an accident in the leftmost column. The required additional sales figures are shown in the appropriate box.

Editor's Notes
- Honor to be hereChanging the industry by changing behaviorSaving lives and preventing accidentsNo competition when it comes to safety
- Everyone cares about safety but do they act?
- #1 is peopleYou can’t manage a culture – you can manage the things that go into yours
- People are your number one resource50,000 claim = 200,000
- ¼ of claims are soft tissueStains are highest in frequency and costIs it going to get better with an aging work force?No OSHA Requirement
- ROIWe are constantly being evaluated on safetyEMR seems to be going up no matter what we doDoing the right thing
- A measurement of a leader is a measurement of their followersWhat are you doing to demonstrate your commitment to safety? Let people know what your expectations are. Set project and people goals.
- Train and grow your people. They are the next leaders within your companyHow do you manage safety and include everyoneAre you pushing your safety people to become more qualified?
- Don’t do training to check a box. Orientation for everyone. This is your chance to communicate your expectationsDon’t waste your people’s timeGive your people the tools they need to manage their careers
- People are our number one resource and the reason I am here. How do you encourage their participation? Do they feel comfortable telling your about near misses and / or concerns. Get to know your people and identify problems early.
- Turn your front line supervisors into your safety advocatesMost people can be unsafe if they are good at something else. We don’t manage performance, we manage results. Measure: safety activities, participation, perceptions, behaviors, conditions.
- The only reason people change is because they are motivated to do so. It is generally more rewarding to work in an unsafe manner. What can we do to make safety more rewarding? To change behavior we must change their threshold of risk.
