Answer 1

To improve safety:

You should tie bonuses to aspects of safety that you can easily measure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bonuses improve safety performance. Are all aspects of safety performance measurable? Yes. It has been established that safety performance can be measured in two main ways by measuring the lag (output or outcome) and lead (input or before-incident) indicators. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) allows employers to institute rate-based programs to reward employees with bonuses. These programs should not be an attempt to discourage the employees from reporting safety issues.
