Hazard Identification Contest Rules:<br />

Workers identify a hazard <strong>and</strong> a solution for that hazard. If they can’t<br />

write, a coworker or supervisor can assist in completing the form. The<br />

form is given to the supervisor. The supervisor immediately makes a<br />

copy of the form <strong>and</strong> gives the original to the person in charge of<br />

making repairs. The copy of the form is given to the Chair of the<br />

<strong>Safety</strong> Committee.<br />

Once per quarter, the <strong>Safety</strong> Committee takes the forms collected that<br />

quarter, <strong>and</strong> elects the First, Second <strong>and</strong> Third Prizes based on rules<br />

set established by the <strong>Safety</strong> Committee for this purpose. The award<br />

ceremony should be at a moment when all workers are gathered.<br />

The Hazard Identification Contest is one of the most powerful tools<br />

avai<strong>la</strong>ble to focus an entire workforce on solving workp<strong>la</strong>ce hazards.<br />

Not only is this contest an extraordinary morale booster but it<br />

encourages workers to look for hazards! Considering that the average<br />

out-of-pocket cost to an employer for an accepted disabling injury is<br />

almost $10,000, the cost of the Hazard Identification Contest is<br />

minimal.<br />
