Hi Mr. Desai,

This is a common problem in every industry/organisation. We too had similar problem. It was not only the problem of people who were not wearing the helmet but also taking away others helmet while going!!! To tackle this, we did the following:

Strict instructions were given to the security personnel not to allow any two wheeler driver to enter the factory without helmet.
A worker without helmet can enter the factory only after paying a fine of Rs.10/- on first day and it is compounding till the 5th day. His name will be entered in a register for monitoring. Even if he does not come to the factory with helmet on the 6th day, he will not be allowed to park his vehicle inside the factory.
Those who refuse to pay the fine ( or to avoid the word fine, call it as parking fees), can park his vehicle outside the factory/organisation and the safety of his vehicle entirely his look out.
The amount collected is being used for getting biscuits etc., for the kids in the Creche.
A person who does not wear the helmet while coming in will pay the fine and while going back in the evening will be asked to sign in the register kept just to avoid taking away of somebody's helmet.

The result of this procedure, believe me, today nobody enters the factory without helmet.

Hi

i feel that an awarness should be bought among the employees about the benefits of wearing the helmet....posters can be pined up on the notice boards....but as wearing an helmet is not directely related to employement so it is up to the employees weather they wear it or not.....if it is made compulsary then the employees may feel that they are forced to do something which is not directely related to their work......

First mention all the positive things.(ie; Safety for self, Security for Family etc)

& also
Give Notice if anything happens wrong for not wearing helmets, they will not get any benefits from the company's side.

Send all these notices to all the resident addresses. so that their family members also get aware of wearing helmets.

By concentrating on their families we can motive a person for wearing helmets

We have a policy of providing an additional amount of Rs1100/- other than salary to our employees who bring two wheeler provided that they submit their vehicle papers & DL.....
Wearing helmets for both driver & pillion is must in our co. for all employees & if in any case anyone of driver or pillion does'nt wear helmet while comimg or leaving the co, we deduct those 1100/- Rs as a penalty against violating the safety norms of co. for that month & issue a letter to him with a cc to his personal file.

After implementing this policy, Results have been seen very positive.

In starting we issue letter to few employees but now everybody follow the safety rules.
Hope it may help yo in some ways.

loook frnds it depends from city to city in my city even if u carry helmet in ur two wheeleer n not wear it, ur exempted by police,

so if a co in my city makes helmet compulsary , employees will just bring helmet, n not wear it,,

and u can just educate the employees,, and not force them,,,

plz understand upto what level u can go ,, n not just force anything on employees

Dear

Wearing Helmet is compulsory in factory premises.

This is done through small steps.

Firstly discuss some of the major road accidents with empls;
Show one movie of road safety-avaialble in net.
Secondly give them options -arrange one helmet distributor who can provide helmet to employees with discounted rates in canteen or any factory premises.
After that not to fine any one, but could not allow to park inside the factory. this is a rule that every employee should strictly follow the rules & regulations of company, like safety shoes, helmets etc.
Give one week time to everybody to purchase helmets Instruct security officers not to allow anyone.
This gives a small reisistance from employees initially but after that they will definately praise you.
