It's even worse considering that they only have five boards. They expect at least one accident every month

I work in the LTL freight industry, if we go 30 days without an accident or an injury we get a free BBQ day with unlimited food for everyone. We're talking burgers, hotdogs, chilli, chowder, chips, drinks, etc. Sometimes they even do catering. Our last one they did Hawaiian Food for 2 days (they got too much) which definitely made everyone happy.

I've been there for almost 10 years, we average about 2 per year.

Edit to clarify: 2 BBQs per year. We're really good as getting hurt.

I wonder if that's still cheaper, because it makes people value safety of others but also because it raises the burden to report smaller accidents and workmans comp fraud because of peer pressure.
