There are many safety incentive programs used by companies in the United States. Some are based on reactive "lagging

indicators", and some on proactive "leading indicators".

Discuss a safety incentive program that you are familiar with. If you have not had any experience with safety incentive

programs, research a type of incentive program on the Internet.

Remember, OSHA discourages the use of any safety incentive program that would discourage employees from reporting

near misses, injuries, or illnesses. How does the safety incentive program you are familiar with affect employees' incentive

for reporting near misses, injuries, and illnesses? What recommendations would you make to improve the program?
