??? SAFETY SUCCESS STORY: How did Quality Electric cut recordable injuries by 50%? It started with consolidating multiple systems into one comprehensive EHS solution. Sam Erickson, Corporate Safety Officer at Quality Electric, transformed their safety program from using multiple disconnected apps to KPA's integrated platform. The results speak volumes: ?? Met Industry Safety Metrics "We hit our industry's metrics, which was 2.0 for TRIR, and 1.3 for DART. We went below the DART, which I'm so proud of our team for." ?? Dramatically Improved Incident Reporting "We've had more accidents that we've actually tracked... We tracked 71. Prior to that, I would have said we were lucky if we got 20." ?? Enhanced Safety Culture "I now have employees reaching out, and this isn't just foremen reaching out. This is people in the field... They're doing critical thinking at this point about safety risks, which is instrumental in getting adapted into making it a positive safety climate within your company."

?? Did you know?? 34% of workplace injuries happen during an employee's first year on the job? The 2023 Travelers Injury Impact Report shows that this stat is closer to 50% for hazardous industries like construction, restaurants, and transportation. When we discussed this topic with our customers, we discovered a wide range of industry-specific challenges contributing to these statistics: ?? #Elevators “It’s extremely dangerous. We can’t just hire anyone. They must be accepted to school to become an apprentice and work for 4-5 years before they can be a mechanic.” - Taylor Marshall, GSP, Safety & Environment Manager at KONE ?? #Construction “Construction work is still ‘macho’; new guys will do things they aren’t comfortable with or that they think is unsafe if others are doing it.” - Garett Cornwell, Safety Director ?? #Mining “We work in a high-risk environment every day. We are drilling, blasting, mining, and moving heavy materials all day everyday at each location. Teaching a new hire about all the potential hazards and risks takes much more than a few solid days of orientation.” - David Finley MES, CSP, HSE Director at Dolese New employees don't just lack experience—they're navigating complex operational procedures while trying to fit into established workplace cultures.

The first hurdle in accident and injury tracking is getting employees to report incidents in the first place. This includes not just major accidents, but also near-misses and minor incidents that could signal bigger problems. The goal of accident and injury tracking isn’t just compliance—it’s sending employees home in the same condition they arrived. ?? By implementing robust tracking systems and creating a culture that encourages reporting, you’re taking an essential step toward protecting your most valuable asset: your people.

New-hire safety doesn't end after initial training. Creating a continuous safety culture requires ongoing reinforcement and employee engagement. ?? Our latest podcast explores how to maintain safety momentum beyond day one. Zach Pucillo, KPA’s EHS Compliance Manager, and David Pomaville, Director of Environmental Health and Safety at Caglia Environmental look at the unique risks that new hires face in their first year on the job and discuss effective onboarding practices and training techniques such as: ?? Rotating members on safety committees to bring fresh perspectives and broader engagement across your organization ?? Conducting targeted emergency drills with supervisors and leads to transform panic responses into calculated action during real emergencies "We want to train employees so that when an emergency happens, they go from panic to calculated response more effectively. Doing more frequent, shorter, smaller drills increases the confidence level of our supervisors and leads so we're better prepared." - David Pomaville, Caglia Environmental Listen to our full podcast with safety experts Zach Pucillo and David Pomaville for actionable insights on protecting new hires: https://hubs.ly/Q03bzWH50 #SafetyCulture #EmergencyPreparedness #EmployeeTraining #WorkplaceSafety

Is your injury tracking system actually preventing accidents? ?? Step 6 ?? of our 10 Steps to EHS Compliance focuses on accident tracking that goes beyond spreadsheets. The hidden costs of poor tracking are substantial: ? Skyrocketing workers' compensation rates ? Recurring injuries with the same root cause ? Missed patterns that could prevent future incidents ? Potential OSHA violations and penalties Don't wait for patterns to emerge in your workers' comp claims. Build a system that proactively identifies risks.
