SafeStart Now

Safer people, more compliance, exceptional culture.

SafeStart Now’s safety and human error reduction training is used by thousands of worksites to cut down on common states and errors that lead to injuries and fatalities.

It’s easy to implement. It complements existing safety management systems. Most importantly, it works.

Personal safety awareness. Corporate safety success.

When safety awareness is up, injuries are down—it’s a powerful concept at the heart of SafeStart Now training.

SafeStart Now takes safety awareness to the next level by reinforcing knowledge with practical techniques that help workers stay more alert to risk all day, every day, anywhere and in every industry.

Fewer injuries. Better productivity.

Companies experience a 50% injury reduction on average, along with more near-miss reporting, better supervisory and peer-to-peer communication.

Our clients experience fewer production delays, less waste and a drop-off in repeated incidents like back injuries and slips, trips and falls.

Cut down on safety shortcuts

Every safety shortcut is the result of a decision that could be made differently. SafeStart Now reduces risky shortcuts through an effective blend of personal motivation, awareness and safety decision-making skills.

Advanced Learning Design

SafeStart Now’s short interactive classes use advanced adult learning principles and the latest in instructional design to maximize the impact of every minute spent in safety training.

With strong design based on the science of learning, SafeStart Now offers effective education and between-session activities that teach essential skills with an emphasis on long-term sustainability.

Train smarter. Not longer.

SafeStart Now is one of the most economical safety programs for value of time spent training—because workers learn transferable skills that keep them safer in all aspects of their job and life.

Keep safety at the front of employees’ minds for a lot longer than you thought possible. SafeStart Now’s practical, easy-to-follow training gets the most from each session and means better safety compliance, fewer injury-causing errors and results that last.

Improve engagement and safety culture.

SafeStart Now gives EHS managers and supervisors an effective playbook to secure employee buy-in for safety. With everyone on the same page, the safety culture gets stronger.

With its unique leverage points and memorable concepts, SafeStart Now engages employees and keeps them committed to safety 24/7.

24/7 safety

A world-class safety system requires a 24/7 approach. Off-the-job injury rates are significantly higher than on-the-job injury rates—and they impact companies in numerous ways.

SafeStart Now leverages employees’ natural motivation and provides techniques to reduce injuries at work, at home and on the road. The result is a positive shift in safety attitudes, increases participation in workplace training and fosters a more robust safety culture.

Sustainability

Long-term safety requires a sustainability plan. Safety training needs to be consolidated to transform temporary safety gains into permanent culture. SafeStart Now follows up its initial training rollout with sustainability options like:

additional learning and review units
observation and feedback process
supervisor training and peer-to-peer conversations
orientation training for new hires and contractors
toolbox talks and videos

compliance material and lesson plans
safety management system integration services
signage and communication resources
follow-up coaching and assessments

Virtual training options available

SafeStart Now has an advanced virtual delivery model that combines remote instructor-led training, web meetings and self-paced learning to help organizations develop strong safety skills and improve workplace outcomes irrespective of distance, disruption to travel, or group meeting restrictions.

Our live online courses pair live instruction, group exercises, purposeful practice, and coaching by a SafeStart Now consultant with the flexibility and convenience of online training.
