Introduction
• Essential elements of a successful program– Setting of goals and objectives– Action planning– Overcoming barriers– Performing a cost–benefit analysis– Relating the training program to the goals of the safety
program– Developing standard operating procedures
• Information for Life Safety Initiatives 1, 3, 9, and 11 are presented

Essential Elements
• Top management that is committed to the program• A safety and health program manager• A comprehensive risk management plan• A safety and health policy• Record-keeping system for data analysis

Essential Elements
• An accident and injury investigation process• Infection control program• Provisions for critical incident stress management• Access to local, state and national injury and death
statistics• A process to analyze and implement policies to
comply with local all regulations and standards

Setting Goals andObjectives of the Program
• First step is to determine goals – Broad based statements– Measurable outcome and time frame– Developed by the safety program manager and/or the Safety
Committee
• Objectives– Specific statements of action– Will provide the road-map to reach a goal– Measurable and include reasonable time frames
10-8

Action Planning
• Several components to be considered– List the goal and objective that it is designed for
• Team member’s names
– Be developed by the team that has been assigned the objective
– Should contain very specific step-by-step actions– Often set up in tabular form

Cost-Benefit Analysis
• Shows initial outlay will save in future reduction of risk– Some assumptions must be made– Sometimes the data are based on estimations
• Evaluate the cost-effectiveness of a program– Describe, numerically, the cost of the risk currently– Determine cost of the risk after implementation– Determine whether this measure would be effective from a
purely cost standpoint

Training
• Direct and close relationship between training and safety
• Training officer or division– Assumes program functions
• Minimum level of training• Ensures responders can
– Handle incident safely– Recognize dangers

Summary
• Safety and health program has many components• Program manager uses these components to
develop processes to implement the program• For most goals and objectives, a cost–benefit
analysis should be performed• Training and safety are very closely related
