In The Participation Factor Dr. Geller provides answers to commonly asked occupational safety questions, such as, "What safety slogans are more appropriate? What kinds of incentive/reward programs increase participation? What safety performance metrics increase positive stress rather than negative stressors, thereby encouraging empowerment and involvement? Also included is a new Social Influence Survey (SIS) designed to teach the social dynamics of safety.
