Agenda Item 3.01 – Focus: 2024

Trustees received a report on the five-year strategic plan, Focus:2024, efforts to reduce the general fund impact caused by safety concerns resulting in injury or damage, increase the number of completed safety assessments, and decrease the number of worker’s compensation claims with five or more days away from work.

The measure will be closely monitored and modified to continue to address the primary causes of loss that can be attributed to safety issues. The Worker’s Compensation staff has developed a new Transitional Return to Work program to decrease the number of employees that miss five or more days of work after a work-related injury. Currently 18% of all claims have five or more days away from work. The new Transitional Return to Work program aims to reduce the amount to the five-year goal of 15%.
