An opportunity has arisen for me to apply for a promotion to Manager and I am looking for some advice for my application. The work is very industrial and covers a large area of both open air and undercover storage. There has been some good work completed in the past years to reduce accidents which I have been involved in at a lower level. The reductions have now levelled off and I have some ideas on improving the current audit scheme and further promoting the safety culture with awareness days and employee training however, I was wondering if anyone has any experiences of accident prevention schemes that have been implemented which have reduce accidents. I am hoping this could help me standout from other applicants and give me some ideas for a new direction to go in should I be sucessful.

Reducing accidents is constrained by the law of diminishing returns. In short, there will come a point where accidents no longer reduce, or at least not the same frequency, unless there is further resources made available. New initiatives may or may not reduce accidents further.
