Small town? Large city? Something in between? Municipalities have unique safety training needs. Tax dollars are scarce and must be used effectively. Bright Spot will work with elected officials and civil servants to create the ideal safety programs. We believe that every minute an employee spends in training must be at least as productive as if that minute was spent on the job. |

New! Humorous Human Factors - Laughing our Way to a Safer Workplace Featuring our copyrighted character, "Lester the Loveable Loser"! |
![]() |
What do we mean by "Beyond OSHA"? Technical programs designed to comply with training requirements are effective in establishing a basis for safety in the workplace. They provide the technical knowledge required for safety but often do not address the underlying cause of accidents. Most accidents are not caused by a lack of knowledge but rather by an attitude. Psychologists have identified several hazardous attitudes that can lead to an increased probability of an accident. Our programs address these hazardous attitudes plus many other human factors issues. Our programs are entertaining and interactive. We make our points without boring the participants with "psychobabble". Participants can relate to our copyrighted cartoon character, "Lester the Loveable Loser", as he makes common workplace mistakes. Your employees will emerge with a determination to avoid being "A Lester". At Bright Spot, Inc. our roots are in the aviation industry. Great strides have been made in aviation safety by addressing these same human factors. For many years, aviation safety programs concentrated on technical procedures such as making instrument approaches in low visibility conditions, executing a landing in a strong crosswind, accurately calculating the amount of fuel required for a flight, etc. Even pilots who had recently completed training on these topics were still involved in accidents. The safety record of aviation dramatically improved when human factors training was added to recurrent training curricula. Bright Spot programs for municipalities build heavily on our expertise in developing and delivering safety training for the aviation industry. Contact us today to see how we can help you lower your cost of workers compensation insurance and decrease absenteeism due to injuries. |
