Build a Company Safety
Culture!
Business and Ecology
Consulting will work with your company
to raise the safety awareness of your employees by
developing and implementing training programs specific to the needs
of your workplaces. Business and Ecology
Consulting will assist with the
development and implementation of a hazard recognition and safety
suggestion program, to enhance your employees’ ability to
recognize and report hazards or risks they encounter
while performing their jobs. Business and Ecology
Consulting
will
help your company create, implement, and manage a safety incentive
program. Properly administered safety incentive programs can be
exceptionally effective in raising safety awareness and increasing
employee participation in safety.
Risk Assessment and Loss Prevention
Plans
Business and Ecology
Consulting begins by assessing all of your current
safety programs and loss control methods. Following our initial
meeting, we visit each of your facilities to conduct a field safety
evaluation that identifies your higher risk workplaces, and enables
us understand the hazards and risks your employees encounter on a
daily basis. Next, a complete risk analysis review is conducted with
your management. This review details OSHA regulatory non compliance
issues, insurance risk exposure, employment law issues needing
attention, and any other potential risk exposure for the
company. After reviewing all of the information
gathered during our meeting and field review, Business and Ecology Consulting
will
develop a comprehensive Loss Control and Prevention
Plan. This Plan is designed to effectively raise safety
awareness of the employees while reducing your workplace hazards on
a worst-first basis. The plan includes: a comprehensive safety
procedures manual custom tailored to your
enterprise; specialized information for
supervisors; safety meeting schedules and training
calendar; and a
special Workmen’s Compensation section for your personnel policy
manual.
Plan
Assessment and Improvements
Business and Ecology
Consulting is an expert in process
improvement. It is almost impossible for small businesses or
professional practices to stay abreast of new administrative law and
court rulings. Business and Ecology
Consulting offers a turnkey approach,
in which our subject matter specialists stay abreast of changes
in OSHA, CalOSHA, health and safety standards, and other risk
management needs, and send you regularly updated materials
to ensure that your needs are met. Business and Ecology
Consulting
can also assist your
staff in developing and documenting safety analyses of their work
processes. The analyses will identify candidate processes for
improvement using a “worst first” methodology to ensure that you get
the biggest bang for your safety dollar. We assist your safety
managers in defining metrics that will create a safety dashboard
composed of both leading and trailing indicators. This
uniquely Business and Ecology
Consulting
approach ensures that
you know both the current status of your
employees’ safety as well as whether risk of injury is increasing or
decreasing.
Field Safety and Hazard
Evaluation
A
Business and Ecology
Consulting
safety professional will visit each of your business
locations with a member of your staff at the frequency YOU select,
monthly, quarterly, or annually. Potential hazards or risks will be
identified and documented at each location, using Business and Ecology
Consulting
proprietary methods. Our professional staff prepare
a detailed follow-up report that outlines the specific
hazards encountered at each location. This report will
presented to your company's management team along
with recommendations for correcting or controlling such
hazards..
Occupational Safety for Health Care
Practices
What
could be safer than working in a doctor's office, or providing home
nursing care? As it turns out, lots of places are safer. In 2004
(the most recent year for which data are available), over
16,000 health care workers in hospitals and offices experienced
needle stick injuries (about a 1 in 300 incidence rate), with the
attendant risk of being infected by Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or
Human Immunodeficiency Virus. And home health care workers work in
an uncontrolled environment. Business and Ecology
Consulting has Sharps training and other
safety training modules you can complete at home or on your
computer. Call or email for more
information.
Safety
Meeting
Support
A
member of Business and Ecology
Consulting's
safety team can facilitate employee safety
meetings and safety committee meetings at the times and
locations
you select for your business or practice. At these
meetings, our facilitator will

during
its periodic hazard surveys. In addition,
Business and Ecology Consulting
will

hazards, assist with explanation and implementation of any new
safety policy or program, address any concerns employees may have
regarding safety, and ensure proper safety meeting documentation is
performed at each
meeting. |
