Safety Program

The 3 C’s are used in the interview process to vet all applicants. The ideal WRS employee is a man or woman of character who knows how to do their job and can get along with people. It’s our winning combination.

Part 1 – New Hire Training – 16 Hours. (Complete list of new hire training topics available upon request)

Part 2 – A highlighted 4 hour Safety Culture Class where all newer employees to WRS interact and get introduced to their own “Injury Free Journey.”

After employees are introduced to their “Injury Free Journey,” we follow-up with a 27 week discovery adventure.

This is a weekly topical look at what it means to be “Injury Free.” This 27 week Journey is undertaken approximately once per year. (Topics available upon request.)

The P.A.W.S. (People Always Working Safely) card is the documentation portion of our safety observation program.

Every time an employee observes a Safe Act, Unsafe Act, or an Unsafe Condition, we ask them to document it on a P.A.W.S. card and turn it in to their safety supervisor.

For the Safe Acts observed, a WRS Safety token can be issued to the person seen going above and beyond.  These tokens can then be redeemed with a gift card to the company store.

This is a visual tool we use to encourage workers to move from being a “Prisoner” or a “Drifter” to becoming a “Player.”

This tool helps supervisors identify which employees are engaged in their work and which ones aren’t.
