City achieves increased safety audit score for another year

 

The City saw an increase in their safety audit score for last year.

 

Out of a possible 4.0 the City earned an average score of 2.5 in 2015, a 0.2 increase from the previous year. This shows the City continues to trend towards ZeroHarm.

 

The increase is attributed to SafeOperations, a program launched in Thompson in 2008. The average safety audit score was 0.8 at that time.

 

SafeOperations Manager, Michelle Smook says SafeOperations is a never ending journey, and that ZeroHarm is their goal.

 

The higher score means lower Workplace Compensation Board rates. They’ve gone from $3.43 per $100 payroll to $1.04 since the start of the program.
