Strategies to Ensure Workplace Safety in Assisted Living and Independent Living Webinar
Did you know that the claims costs associated with workplace injuries in Assisted and Independent Living have increased 37% over the last five years?
Did you know that the length of time an injured workers is off work has gone up by 30% in the past five years?
Workplace injury not only negatively impacts your bottom line, but it has a huge impact on the well-being of your staff, their families, and their co-workers, at a time when attracting top talent is challenging. It can also negatively impact your reputation.
Join BC Care Providers Association/EngAge BC and our partners at SafeCare BC for an interactive session where you can learn more about the cost of health and safety at your organization, and how you can take steps to save money, increase staff retention, and elevate your reputation as an employer of choice. In this session, you will have an opportunity to work through a scenario that demonstrates how injuries are costing you more money and what measures you can take to save money on workplace injuries.
In this session, SafeCare BC’s Senior Director, Innovation and Partnerships, Ken Donohue, will help you:
- Recognize factors that are contributing to the injuries in your workplace
- Identify measures that would help prevent injuries
- Learn more about what health and safety resources are available to you and the staff working at your organization
Attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in a live Q&A.
We invite operators, directors, managers and administrators in independent living and assisted living to attend this engaging and informative webinar.
