Safegagement is a strategy developed by C.A. Short Company to increase employee engagement in workplace safety. It occurs when employees care about their coworkers, company, and overall success, leading them to make safer decisions. To create meaningful Safegagement, companies should focus on five components: tracking leading safety indicators, providing comprehensive safety training, positively reinforcing safe behaviors, ensuring engagement at all levels of the company, and fostering connectivity and ownership. When implemented successfully, Safegagement can decrease accident rates, save costs from fewer injuries, and increase employee engagement and company performance.

4. 1. Leading Indicators
Historically, companies have focused
on lagging indicators – metrics that
measure failure. On the other hand,
leading indicators measure performance.
Build a robust defense against what
might happen, instead of waiting around
for something bad to occur.

5. 1
Leading
Indicators
When you combine these leading
indicators with constructive
problem solving, you begin to
drive Safegagement through
participation. Employees aren’t
just empowered in their present
roles, they’re also given a voice
into the changes that occur
around them.

6. 2. Comprehensive
Training
Give your employees confidence to
take ownership of their workplace.
This lays the groundwork for a
workforce that is actively looking out
for their own and other’s safety.
Not a onetime training session -
Comprehensive & Ongoing.

Comprehensive
Training
Traditional safety training
materials will not cut it in
today’s diversified work
environment. Deliver
on-the-job, area-specific
training that is built on
a team’s ability to work
together.

8. 3. Positive
Reinforcement
In order for Safegagement to work,
you must incorporate positive
reinforcement. The goal here isn’t
to have employees act to receive
rewards, but to have employees
act because they are invested in
their actions.

9. While having reinforced
safety guidelines is a must,
it’s just as important to
reward those who go out of
their way to ensure a safe
environment.

10. 4. Parallel
Engagement
Safegagement cannot occur with
varying degrees of commitment.
When engagement is achieved across
all levels, you give employees a
reason to believe in what they do.

11. 4
Parallel
Engagement
You can’t expect employees to
follow guidelines that managers
and executives are exempt
from. Managers must be held
accountable for not only their
level of engagement, but for that
of their teams as well.

& Ownership

actively listen to their feedback
connect with your employees and
create an environment where they
also want to take ownership.

Connectivity

in a number of ways, like:
• Active listening
• Weekly meetings
• Public displays of appreciation
• Seeking employees advice on
