Impact of off-the-job accidents on your company can dwarf those at work
Unintentional Deaths (2012)
The safety of your employees when they are off-the-job impacts your organization as much, if not more, more than their safety on-the-job.
The costs of off-the-job accidents to your organization often include, but are not limited to:
Medical expenses;
Lost productivity;
Short and long-term disability payments;
Overtime;
New employee training;
Loss of job experience, and;
Pain and suffering endured by other employees.
Off-The-Job Safety Training is a unique program designed to help organizations meet the challenge of improving off-the-job safety.
Off-The-Job Safety Training builds on the principles of FDRsafety’s signature Attitude-Based Safety Culture Training that motivates workers to “want to” be safe rather than feeling they “have to” be safe. This program has been presented to more than 500,000 workers and managers across the country, and is credited by many companies with improving safety performance within their organization. Taking this message a step further, Off-The-Job Safety Training motivates workers to remain safe 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
This is a highly interactive course that includes exercises, short videos, and discussions geared towards protecting loved ones. The course reveals decisions and unsafe actions that could endanger family members. Upon completion of Off-The-Job Safety Training, each participant develops a personal safety action plan for protecting the safety and well-being of his or her family.

The Iceberg Effect – Off-the-job accidents
Like an iceberg, the indirect costs of an accident may not be visible on the surface, but are often much more significant than direct costs. The indirect costs are essentially the same whether the accident occurred on or off-the-job.
