Author, Drew Garcia, Vice President, Landscape Group, Rancho Mesa Insurance Services, Inc.
Rancho Mesa provides our clients the key components for building the infrastructure of a modern-day safety program through the SafetyOne™ Platform. By fundamentally layering your safety program through SafetyOne™, you will build a system that can keep up with your growth, measure your goals, and keep your organization engaged.
In a report from Travelers Insurance Company titled, “2025 Travelers Injury Impact Report,” they noted within the last 5 years, more than a third of all injuries stemmed from an employee’s first year on the job.
Establishing an effective safety program can help prevent new-hire injuries. Avid SafetyOne users saw a 27% decrease in claim frequency over a 3-year period by implementing effective onboarding of their safety program, performing ongoing safety activities and maintain compliance:
Onboarding
The ability of an organization to effectively hire and train new employees is critical to maintaining a safe workplace. Safety onboarding ensures that site, equipment, and tool hazards, along with policies, processes, and emergency response protocols, are clearly communicated and understood to meet core safety expectations.
Ongoing
Manage your safety program on a regular basis with near miss reporting, job hazard analysis, tailgate training and more. By accessing your mobile forms and observations within SafetyOne, you are able to manage your team’s ongoing efforts to stay engaged.
Compliance
Pulling reports can be critical to evaluating the program you established and an efficient way to gather critical information when you need it quickly. This allows you to monitor the standards that are in place to help prevent injuries, ensure expectations are clear and change behaviors which ultimately impacts risk predictability.
