Hi Nakshatra,

Some suggestions to organize Safety Week celebration:

- Safety oath, flag hoisting, and Safety rally
- Safety pep talk by Management representative
- Training on Safety issues (Fire Fighting, Emergency preparedness, Hazard Identification, etc.)
- Introduction of any Safety initiatives during the week
- Competitions and awards (Slogan, poster, safety champion)

These are a few suggestions that can be organized on short notice. I hope they are useful.

Best wishes for Safety Week celebration.

Hi Nakshatra,
Thanks, Shweta, for sharing valuable insights. In addition, I would like to add some points:
1) You can show safety-related video clips relevant to your processes.
2) Arrange a seminar with a Government authority from the Labor Department.

Thanks,

Dear,

Please suggest to me, in a competition, who gets the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd ranks, what should be the prize for them. Please give your input. With the best hope of your suggestion.

1st Prize should be Rs. 2000/-, 2nd Prize should be Rs. 1000/-, and 3rd Prize should be Rs. 500/-. A consolation prize will be given to all participants, i.e., a Parker or any other pen worth Rs. 50 to 100. This initiative should also promote employee engagement.

Hi there,

Please, I need your help. I am planning for a safety week in our gas (LPG) plant. The work schedule is tight, and I don't want a program that would interfere with the event. Your suggestions are welcomed here.

Thank you.
