In July, VRSA launched the GOAL campaign, taking a simple adage that the trucking industry uses, get out and look, and applying it to situations where members can identify risks to prevent and reduce losses.
The GOAL campaign focuses on six areas: automobiles, buildings, documents, equipment, facilities, and job sites.
Materials, including posters and fliers dedicated to each of the six focus areas, were developed and are available for members on our website.
“The campaign was inspired by the work many of our members are already doing,” said VRSA Director of Education and Training Thomas Bullock. “Since the launch, we have continued to hear from member staff who are choosing to implement the GOAL campaign in their entities, and we are continuing to work with them to build the campaign together.”
Several virtual engagements are planned or have taken place, including:
- Are You Getting the Best Protection from Your Contracts? Get Out And Look! – View recording
- Are You Prepared for Winter Weather? Get Out and Look!, Register
- Before You Use It, Inspect It: Applying GOAL to Tools and Equipment, Register
To further help inspire members to adopt the campaign, various VRSA staff have developed a How to Goal: A VRSA Field Guide video, viewable below.
