Safety Gear (person) (2).pdf

CASE STUDY

Context: A local lawn care business was in the process of hiring and onboarding new employees many of whom are new to the industry and are new to providing lawn care through a company.


Challenges: The company was new to hiring employees and was hiring a lot of first time lawn care employees. The company was having small, on-the-job injuries resulting from associates not taking proper safety precautions and wearing required safety gear.


Solutions: This infographic was created to not only express the required safety gear to be used while on a job site but also to quickly remind the associates of the purpose of the gear and the protection it offers them.


Results: Associates provided positive feedback to the clarification of expectations. The company has also seen a decline in the number of small, on-the-job injuries.
