  3. What is Loss Control? • Reducing & eliminating the occurrence of undesired events through engineering controls, enforcement of established procedures, frequent training and continuous evaluation.

  4. Undesired Events • Not an Accident, but a Loss Incident • 3 Causes • 1. Lack of Control • 2. Basic Causes • 3. Immediate Causes • Causing an Undesired Event • Resulting in Loss

  10. Cost of Loss Incidents • Injury Cost • Medical • Compensation Costs • Property Damage • Building Damage • Equipment Damage • Repair Costs • Product Damage • Miscellaneous Costs • Loss of Production • Additional Paperwork • Wages for lost time $1 $1 to $3 $5 to $50

  11. Cost in Sales • Spend on average $800,000 Comp. Injuries • Profit Margin of 5% • $16,000,000 in additional sales to cover loss

  15. Terminology • A manager is Assigned Responsibility • A manager is Delegated Authority to carry out the responsibility • A manager is Held Accountable for carrying out or not carrying out the responsibility

  16. Safety Management • Responsibility • Design of Program • Provide Technical Assistance • Measure Activity & Results for Accountability • Authority • Advise, Warn & Question • Accountability • Quality of program • Accuracy of Technical Advise

  17. Proactive Safety- Start at Hire • Integrate Safety in Classified ad when hire • Discuss at Interview • Safety Orientation • Have the new hire work with a responsible associate that is not a risk taker • Touch base with a few weeks on the job

  18. Eliminate Unsafe Actsto Eliminate Loss Serious Injury 1 Minor Injuries 29 Non-Injury Incidents 300 Unsafe Behaviors 700,000

  19. Procedures • Have a procedure on every critical task • Can be in the form of CWTA or JSA • Procedure identifies: • 1.Basic Job Steps • 2.Hazards associated with task • 3.Safe Job Procedure • Ensure Associates are trained on and follow procedure

  20. Daily Safety Observations • Observe most critical tasks most often • Immediate Corrective Action for substandard behavior • Stop task at hand • Start positive • Coach on substandard behavior • End on positive stern note • Show sincere praise for safe behavior
