Safety training is an important issue for employers. Quite frankly, safety training is necessary for many reasons: to reduce work related injuries, to keep our employee's doing the job we pay them to do, and to reduce the amount of workers' compensation claims we have. What does this have to with a single safety video? Well, the Remember Charlie video is perhaps the most influential safety video ever made and it will save your company money.

Here are four reasons why this video should be an important part of your safety training regimen:

1) The Remember Charlie video is highly motivational! Charlie Morecraft's story will absolutely capture those who watch it. It is an inspirational story of why safety training and safety procedures are a very necessary part of the American workplace.

2) This video, although expensive, will pay for it self many times over. How much is a work related injury worth to your bottom line? The insurance industry estimates that the average claim for workers' compensation costs more than $5,000. This includes not only medical treatment, but also lost time and permanent disability. The Remember Charlie video will force your employee's to think about safety at all times.

3) Is personal protective equipment (PPE) important? Ask Charlie Morecraft. A lack of safety procedure coupled with no use of personal protective equipment equaled disaster. Yes, the video will reinforce why your PPE is necessary, vital, and a required part of working on the job safely.

4) This is one safety training video that will leave a mark on your employees. The video will leave a very lasting impression amongst those who watch. As most know, safety training videos are boring and forgettable. Ask anyone who has watched this video and they will tell you that it has affected their work life, and has made them think often about the need for safety practices and procedures.
