model was THE definitive approach to changing human behavior. For those

All Recognition Programs Are Not The Same
On the surface, all recognition programs look alike. And yes, when you ask them, employees always say, "just give me the cash." But look closer, and you'll see why in the long run, cash isn't king. In fact, Goodyear found that merchandise recognitions outperformed cash by
2-to-1. Recent surveys show 94% of all employees prefer a tax-free gift in favor of taxable cash or gift certificates. And Toyota found that it costs $192 to award an employee $100 in cash or Sears Gift Certificates. That's over $92 lost to taxes!
And a far more important question than the tax issue is: Did your recognition program work? Did it cut your injuries, without injury hiding? Did it boost your sales? Did it produce money-saving suggestions? Are you really getting enough bang for your recognition buck? Too often, managers just shrug their shoulders when asked these questions.
We've helped companies just like yours keep their profits from going up in smoke, and add millions of dollars to their bottom line. We can show you how to design a tax-free recognition program that will produce the results you want, and we'll make program administration a breeze.
To reassure you that we can help your organization achieve its goals, please feel free to call some of our clients and ask how we have helped them.

The Real Goal Is Behavior Change...But What Are You Doing About It?
Today's managers want sustained employee behavior change. Behavior change requires top-notch training and consistent recognition.
Employees rank recognition as the most important ingredient in job satisfaction, while a bigger paycheck ranks a lowly sixth place. And yet, 73% of all employees say they aren't recognized often enough by their managers.
A disenchanted staff drains your business of morale, motivation and profits. But empowered, recognized employees deliver amazing performance improvement. Consider these results .

Behavior-Based Performance Improvement Solutions
Safety
Behavior Change
Whether you are a large company or a small one in
search of safety incentive solutions, you've come to the right place.
We began in the 1960's helping companies improve safety performance
with our comprehensive, tax free safety incentive strategies. Over
1,000 firms have successfully used our solutions to change behavior.
Most important is the fact that our incentive solution is uniquely
behavior based, unlike many other program which encourage injury
hiding and under reporting. While you may have typed "safety
incentives" into the search engine, in truth, most managers are
not looking for safety poker, bingo, scratchoffs, jackpots or other
gimmicks, but instead desire sustained safety behavior change. Our
safety incentive approaches have helped many companies reduce
injuries 90% or more, saving millions in the process--all without
injury hiding.
Wellness Incentive Solutions
Our Tax Free
Wellness Incentive solutions will you help you change health
behaviors leading to long term lower health-care costs. Over 75% of
all wellness programs realize the need for wellness incentives,
however, 4 out of 5 fail to reach the most important medium and high
risk employees who drive 73% of your health care costs. These
ineffective "one size fits all" approaches to wellness
incentives fail to make a difference. In surveys done by Bill Sims
and Welcoa (a leading wellness organization) the two most popular
wellness incentives are cash and health-care discounts. Oddly enough,
the research also shows them to be the least effective. Our tax free
programs such as Healthpoints wellness incentive solutions are easy
on your budget and your time.
Morale & Teamwork
Are you
struggling with lackluster performers, high turnover, or poor
employee satisfaction scores? Our Smartcard behavior based
recognitionTM solution will help your recognize day in/day
out your above and beyond performers. In a study by Watson Wyatt,
employee recognition is the number one reason that top companies
outdistance their competitors. Eighty years of research have proven
that it isn't salary increases or better benefits that drive superior
performance. These expensive solutions are soon forgotten and become
expected. Learn how our positive reinforcement solutions will
streamline your recognition strategies.
