Innovation Idea Details

Organization:
Eden Gardens

Innovation Idea:
To encourage and improve both workplace safety education and online learning compliance, Eden Gardens is introducing the “Passport for Safety – Canadian Edition Eh?”. Each staff member will have their own “passport” and can collect stamps for completing online learning modules, demonstrating workplace safety knowledge, or scavenger hunts to find safety equipment.

Eden Gardens is putting the focus on Canadian flag colours, with the focus on Code Red and Code White, to add a patriotic element to our Passport for Safety. Eden Gardens intends to continue with the Passport for Safety, focusing on different international code colours as the program progresses.

How did you implement this idea?
The idea has not yet been implemented in the workplace.

What has been the impact on workplace health and safety?
Increased completion of online learning modules, improved workplace safety education and knowledge, increased awareness of international emergency codes, and identification of workplace safety equipment, all while maintaining a fun and slightly competitive work environment.
