  emphasizes the strategy that many employers use which is the active management
  of each injury case. The program offers suggestions and guidelines to set

  WORKERS’ COMPENSATION - EMPLOYEE'S ROLE — This videotape can
  become the foundation of a safety program. As employees view the tape, they
  will learn that the concerns about improving safety expressed by upper
  management mirror their own personal values. They will soon see that the
  solutions to produce a safe work environment can only be obtained by their
  own active participation in an organized safety awareness campaign. The
  program emphasizes that attitudes must change and awareness be heightened
  before "the cycle" can be stopped. This program is highly motivational
  and it will inspire employees to be part of the solution rather than part
  of the problem. The program emphasizes that any company safety program
  should always involve accident prevention, the focal point of this videotape
  in controlling workers' compensation costs. (22 Minutes)

  

  Special Note: Video #320 and #321 are complementary. They
  present the “Employee” and the “Management” perspective
  on identical operating situations.

  WORKERS’ COMPENSATION - MANAGEMENT'S ROLE — This video program
  is oriented toward management personnel in developing an effective safety
  program. As the audience views the tape, they will quickly learn how employee
  attitudes reflect the degree of importance placed on safety by company
  management. They will soon learn that a safer work environment can only
  be obtained through management’s commitment to and participation in
  an organized safety awareness campaign. Since each unsafe act, condition,
  near-miss or accident will lead to others, this program motivates management
  to break this “cycle” by shifting to a program of accident prevention.
  The program does an excellent job of demonstrating how to follow up on
  reports of near-misses, incidents and accidents as well as properly handling
  workers' compensation claims. This program should motivate management to
  take the lead in accident prevention. (21 Minutes) 

  

  Special Note: Video #321 and #320 are complementary. They

  RETURNING THE INJURED WORKER TO THE JOB — This program illustrates
  that returning an injured worker to the job is one of the most effective
  ways to control workers' compensation costs. While there is no "magical"
  formula for a successful early return-to-work program, some of the ingredients
  include the following: 1) Talking with medical professionals and injured
  workers regarding the availability of light duty jobs, 2) Contacting the
  worker right away following an injury to discuss their return to work, and
  3) Promoting company-wide cooperation in returning workers to the job.
  This video program will help illustrate the message that for any workers'
  compensation loss control program to succeed, employers must demonstrate
  to the employees that they are constantly promoting health and well-being
  of those employees. (22 Minutes)

  THE CASINO: AMERICA’S CRISIS — This video program provides
  a very candid discussion between members of several union contractors as
  well as representatives from various building trade unions. Essentially,
  the program calls for both parties to work together to bring the workers'
  compensation costs under control by implementing a comprehensive workers’
  compensation program. This includes establishing a job site specific safety
  plan with zero accidents as the goal, as well as the intention to eliminate
  fraudulent workers' compensation claims. This is an extremely motivational
  video and stresses the absolute necessity of a partnership between labor
  and management. Although it centers around the construction industry, the
  message is appropriate for any industry. (25 Minutes)

					TAKING CONTROL: THE WORKERS’ COMPENSATION RETURN-TO-WORK CONNECTION
  — This is an informative and practical presentation for supervisors
  and managers who sincerely want to take control and minimize workers’
  compensation costs. Through the dramatization of an industrial incident
  and the actual experience of a hospital, the impact of a return-to-work
  program is clearly illustrated. The importance of communication and attitude
  is explained. The relationship between workers’ compensation and the
  Americans With Disability Act (ADA) is explained. This video shows how
  a relatively manageable injury situation can escalate to a very expensive
  loss for an employer who fails to take control. (26 Minutes)
