Although generally not required in California, a workplace safety committee is an extremely valuable tool that employers can use to augment their mandatory illness and injury prevention programs and keep the need for safe work habits at the forefront of everyone's thinking. In this way, a safety committee can lower the risk of injuries to your workers and lower your organization's risk of fines, jury awards, and workers' compensation costs.

If you want your safety committee to make a real difference in your workplace, you must be prepared to invest a good deal of energy and time designing and developing it—if you don't, your efforts will be wasted.

Plus, your managers and line supervisors must be prepared to effectively communicate with employees who return to work following a work-related injury or non-occupational medical leave, and get them into modified duty positions that work for everyone involved. This requires time and training—you cannot assume that this is happening now at your workplace unless you've laid the groundwork.

But where to start? Join us on January 30 for a comprehensive audio conference that will explain everything you need to know about getting an effective safety committee off the ground — or breathing new life into one you've already got running.

YOU AND YOUR COLLEAGUES WILL LEARN:

• Why every workplace can benefit from an effective safety committee
• How to decide who should be on your safety committee
• How to make your safety committee fit, as well as shape, your safety culture
• Real-life examples of how safety committees benefit a company's overall safety program
• Tips to keep your safety committee fresh and functional
• Where to start if you're developing a safety committee for the first time
• Why a good safety committee can improve your bottom line

ABOUT YOUR SPEAKER:

Gary Gagliardi, vice president of Safety Resources in Zionsville, Indiana, provides on-site analysis and training that directly helps employers reduce the risks of management liability. He also helps employers develop effective policies, procedures, and prevention practices that help change the culture to facilitate a safer environment. His research paper, entitled "The Integration of the Science of Slips and Falls in a Comprehensive Program to Affect Change," was published in the July 2005 issue of the Journal of the International Society for Occupational Ergonomics & Safety.

How Do Audio Conferences Work?

An audio conference is remarkably cost-effective and convenient. You participate from your office using a regular telephone. You have no travel costs and no out-of-office time.

Plus, for one low price you can get as many people in your office to participate as you can fit around a speakerphone.

Because the conference is live, you can ask the speakers questions' either on the phone or via e-mail.

With your registration, you also receive conference materials with additional practical information from Employer Resource Institute sent to you via e-mail shortly before the conference.
