This session will demonstrate how the new SafeStart Refresh Challenge reinforces the key SafeStart techniques with competition and camaraderie while distracting participants from the fact that they are still learning. Participants will also experience first-hand how gamification will get employee engagement and interaction almost immediately. By joining in the gameplay, participants will leave this session energized about this new refresher unit, their fun quotient will be met and they will understand why they need gamification (especially the SafeStart Refresh Challenge) in their organization.
