Safety Streak Continues

Fri, May 13, 2016 Published by

As of Thursday, May 12th, the Campus has had 150 days without any employee injuries!  This is a positive metric for the Campus for many reasons, let me share a few of them with you:

  • Staff are not missing work to go to the 3rd floor of the HCC for assessment and later out to MBI for treatment or follow up visits
  • The nursing staff are not needing to leave residents to assist employees with assessments
  • Our loss ratio (dollars paid for employee claims divided by premium dollars we pay to the insurance carrier) has dropped from 48% to 11% year-to-date!
  • This will result in savings for next year’s workers’ compensation renewal for sure!

Keep up the amazing work, Team Beatitudes!  Think Safety – Work Safely – Report Concerns/Near Misses Timely!

Near Miss Report Form

Safety Update – April Wrap Up

Fri, April 29, 2016 Published by

The Campus accident-free streak continues!  As of the writing of this post, there have been zero employee accidents for the last 137 days – that is awesome!  We had two first aid only claims and those employees are healing nicely and did not need outside treatment, so they were not required to be reported to the workers’ compensation insurance carrier.

If you see a hazard or have a concern about something potentially unsafe in your area, the Campus Safety Team wants to know!  Pick up a Near Miss form located on the Safety Bulletin Boards near each time clock area and turn it in to the HR office.

Keep up the great work, Team Beatitudes.  Think Safety, Work Safely.  You rock!

 

Exciting Safety Update!

Wed, April 6, 2016 Published by

As of the creation of this post, there has not been an employee injury since December 9, 2015 and we think you all deserve a little treat!  The HR team cannot recall a time in the last 8 or 9 years that the Campus has gone this long without an accident that resulted in injury and had to be reported to the workers’ compensation insurance carrier (first aid only incidents do not impact our work comp policy).  So, in honor of this milestone, postcards have been sent to every employees home to thank you for thinking safety and working safely.  The postcards also include a coupon for a $1.50 off of your next purchase in the Bistro, Corner Perk, or HCC Employee Lunch Line.

Remember – workers’ compensation insurance works like car insurance – the more claims that hit the policy, the more the insurance premiums rise at the next renewal. By keeping safety at the front of your mind each day at work, you are helping the Campus control costs.  That’s going to go a long way in reducing our insurance renewals each August and helping us have funds for more exciting things like…raises, parties, capital improvements, etc.!

We will aim to update you weekly on our accident-free status, but if you want more timely information, check the safety boards located near each time clock for postings that look like the attached.

Keep up the great work!  You are awesome, Team Beatitudes!
